East Coast Gear and Supply has good prices on gear sets, I've bought a bunch of stuff from them for my buggy. If you have any questions, give them a call.

When I was a kid working in the garage/junk yard I workied at on weekends and summers I tried to put a new gear set in a rear end of a work van...there is an art to it, I was not an artists.

But these days there will be a video on Youtube showing you how to do it right.

I've never done it right but I have halfassed it several times on beaters and trail only rigs..... So far only one had a horrible meltdown out of about 10....

If you've never done it I would strongly suggest finding a pro or an experienced helper.

If you do choose to ignore that advice (like I have lol) remember that a lot too loose while not good is WAY better than the slightest bit too tight.

Im so pumped, been wanting one of these newer center consoles for a looooong time. I found a guy parting out a 2003 Sierra on craigslist and gave him $30 for it. I already had a spare cubby to remove the tape deck. I have a couple 12volt USB outlets and regular sockets coming off of Fleabay to add to it as well. I spent some time on the road this weekend and BOY is it nice to have REAL cup holders. Its it temporarily right now till I finish up wiring and trim work.

Finally got some new tires on, went with the Cooper AT3's. Ive been very pleased with them so far, great ride, quiet and do well offroad. 285/75/16 LT load range E tires so hopefully they will last on this heavy bastage.

She's a featherweight compared to mine I bet. My BURB weighs in close to 7K pounds without me in it. People hate me driving across there yeards. My 245/75/16 tires with all that weight in the nose digs right in.
