Rear end?
I currently have 2.73 gears and I am wanting to go with 3.73. What would be the best way to go about this? The best deal that I have come up with is the gears for $150 and the bearings for $75 from Zumbrota. Then the only expense would be for someone to put it all together for me. Does this sound like a good deal or is there something better that I could do?

Man I wish you were closer. I'd swap my 3.73 for your 2.73.
Would really like some better highway gears. The wrecking yard here wants $250 for a 3.08 rearend hub to hub. I don't know, maybe thats a good deal . Seems a little high for a 30 year old rear end.

The price is not bad, it is the install $$$ that will kill you.
