nice, was it hard to do? Just askin cause i just mess with the removable carrier ones. i think it's easier to change ratios and stuff by just replacing the carrier. this way i can have a couple of gear ratios ready to pop in when i feel like changing. the ones without carriers like the 10 bolt scares me (work wise).

did you change your speedo gear to get the speedo right again cause this is the only b**ch about changing tire sizes or gear ratios, they all affect the speedos accuracy and sometimes drastically.
