So I am thinking of putting 4.56 gears in my truck. Who do you guys recommend to do it? What can I expect to pay around here? It is a 4x4 so both axles, labor only, ill get the parts. Let me know. A hook-up would be appreciated and definitly repaid!

Yeah i can help you out if you got the parts...

I reccomend finding the correct SOLID PINION SPACER for Dana axles on this page http://www.ratechmfg.com/toc.htm Take the part #, go to www.summitracing.com and enter a RAT- in front of the part # on this page then u can get the spacers.

Seeing as i dont have the 6 foot long breaker bar needed to torque a regular crush sleeve down... These are an exclent stronger option...

I have a pinion depth gauge and dial indicator and stuff... would need shims as well.

The truck that needs the gears is actually my girlfriends, if that offer still stand, let me know. PM me what you want to do the job and how long it would take. Probably wont do it for a few months but im getting the info together.

Ok......so the rear end is a chrysler 9.25 corporate and the front is a Chrysler 8" Independent Front End. I found the solid spacer for the 9.25 do i need it for the 8"?

Wouldnt need that front solid spacer soo much, however a new sleeve is gonna be very hard for me to get crushed.

Ill keep lookin and see if I can find a sold one for the front end. Im planning to get the gears and complete install kits for it very soon. Like i said though, let me know what you want to do the job. My truck is fine with my factory 3.92's because im just running the factory tires but were planning to run 37's on her truck and she has the 3.55's so it isnt gonna cut it by a long shot.

Install, Cal knows a guy thats big into Mopar trucks and does this stuff on the side. A good friend of mine had this guy install 4.56s and also a few other driveline upgrades. The guy does good work and is located near Waukesha.

Cal is the nicest guy, and he knows everyone/everything related to Mopar. He's a good guy to know.
