FYI: if your talking about a trac-loc rebuild kit they charge like an extra 250 dollars to install that! I got quoted at $250 for the gears and the ford racing install kit (gaskets, etc. etc. etc.) and the trac-loc kit was an extra 250 to install.

^^ Thats what I said when I was about to buy mine. I went outside and checked to make sure both wheels spun. They both spun so I just said screw that!
