Question Changing Gear Ratio's

My 70 k-10 has a 4:10 rear,my parts truck has a 3:73 rear.Has anyone changed gear ratios without changing out the whole rearend? I was reading the overhaul manual where it said the original shims are cast and cannot be reinstalled for fear of breaking or cracking them.Where can you buy the steel shims to do this change over and is it a easy swap or a pain in the a$$ ?
