Okay i am trying to figure out if i will need to replace my trac lok while having my gears swapped out. I had my bro stand behind me while i peeled out... 1st time they both peeled out very shortly ( i didnt do a very good power brake job) with the right going first and the left catching on real quick. 2nd time I peeled out quite a ways with only the right peeled out and the left tried a couple times but never really caught on to peel out along with the right side...Now this means i will need my trac lok rebuit correct? Also should it cost anymore to have them do the trac lok along with the gears? Let me put it this way, do you have to take that stuff out anyways and then just slap the new ones in instead of putting the old ones back in...or do you not need to take out the trak lok when switching the gears normally. I was figuring if you needed to pull it out anyways it prolly wouldnt cost any more to have it done, but if not than i am sure i will be charged extra. ANY input?[sm=feedback.gif]

are you having the same problem?

So does anyone have any input that has either changed the gears out themselves or know if it costed more when they had it professionally done? I will be able to call tomorrow to find out but shops closed tonight and was hoping to get it figured out tonight if possible... So does it sound like i need my trac lok rebuilt? If so i wanna get it ordered tonight. THX guys...

it'll cost more for them to replace the clutches. they'll have to tear into the carrier which is not SOP on a R&R ring and pinion.
