i will come pick it up just about anywhere in the country if its the right price and what i need. but i'm in colorado. on another note, i don't care what gears are in it because i can replace that shit, i just can't weld, and don't have4 the space to build one up.

swampy might be interested in doing this. he has setup like 3 or 4. he would probably want a hundered or two to set it up plus actual parts. he is pretty busy now swapping in a tranny though. but he might want to make some loot for repair money

here in LA we can get the axle for around $250 (prolly 4.11 with limited slip and 31 spline) with dicks :finga: brakes plus the brackets for another $300 or so plus incidental costs (welding wire, paint, yoke etc...)

so prolly round $800 PM swampBoy on teh board and see if he wants to do it

There is not a 4x4 shop anywhere near you?

There's several in CO.

Depending on what part of the state you're in you have a wide variety of choices.

Most of the shops on this list here should be able to set you up.

last time i checked around the local 4x4 shops they wanted over $400 just for a regear on the 35. they would probly want over 1000 in labor just to setup the brackets and gears on an 8.8. i'll have to send a pm over to swampy.

Figure your gas and time to drive there, plus what Swampy would want . . . .
