Default rear end help

First off I loves mustangs but know very little about them, or any car for that matter. I have a 87 GT that is bone stock. I'm am having a local shop in northern indianainstall ford racing 373 gears aswell as rebuilding the rear end ($675 if anyone is curious). I have no plan of doing any HP mods in the near future, I just want to wake her up a bit. Does anything else need to be done to the rear end while they are in there? Thanks

Sounds like you have it covered. New gears, o/h the rear. I assume they are replacing all the bearings as well? That 675, is that for parts and labor? If labor only, that's very expensive.

675 for parts and labor, and that is with new bearings. Thanks for the reply!
