I don't know how much Newtakeoff.com charges, but... I found this on the Roush Overstock when I bought my brakes from them.

Free shipping and 3.73 gears. Pretty sweet, and it has a section where you can make them an offer instead of paying their advertised price. No telling if they will accept said offer but it's worth a try.

I vote for some 4.56s and a big rear tire.

If you smacked a curb hard enough to do THAT, then I promise you your axle tube is bent at the very least.

Yep bent the drivers lca amost 90. Upper looks fine as well as the diff, dammage was limited to the outer drivers side area. My tire seems to have taken most of the impact.
