RE: gear swap in progress
Are you planning on installing them yourself?
The reason I ask is I had mine done by a dealership. I believe you have to set backlash by installing shims, there may even be a special tool to do that (too tight or loose and it will self destruct) I would assume the install kit comes with seals, crush washers and friction modifier.
