I am just replacing the parts in my existing housing. I have an Auburn, a new set of 3.42 gears (replacing the existing 3.08ish gears with a bit lower gear in anticipation of an LSX swap in the near future) and all new bearings and seals.

Now, understand, I'm not actually replacing them. I found a guy who builds and races round track cars, and does this kind of work as well. He is charging me $75 and guarantees the correct fit and finish. He has already done 2 sets for me, and they both worked perfectly.
