Total price was $970.00 for 3.55s. Pretty much about the same price if I went with building up the 7.5 rear here on eastern Long Island. Plus I wanted 3.55s which are not available for the 7.5 rear. STAY AWAY FROM speedconcepts!!!
Well that's good to know. Thanks for the heads up.

Yes thank you very much for the heads up. That is proably where I would be spending my money at. As for the gears, I want them but a 3.31 does just fine for me, plus they get good gas milage. Also I wouldnt have to recalibrate my speedometer even though it is already off. Me and a buddy will be doing all the work, I just like to do all the work myself, it saves money and it gives you a better sense of acomplishment after you do it. I think I am going to hit ever Junkyard around here either today or tommorrow and see what I can find. If I just so happen to find one with 3.55 because that is what is in the 05 Manuals inst it. Anyways, I am going to give the Junkyards one more try and if that doesnt work I guess I will just have to break down and pay to get it shipped in here. So atleast what kinda price should I be paying for shipping if it comes from NTOff because it would be coming from their Indiana Facility and I am in SW Virginia
