Gear swap question well i am about to swap from my stock 2.73's to 3.73s in a couple weeks and i am ordering the parts now... and my question is, what all do i need besides ordering the master install kit from jawsgear? this is pasted from their site of what it includes- Master Installation Kit Includes Pinion and Carrier Bearings, Pinion Seal, Pinion and Carrier Shims, Pinion Nut, Ring Gear Bolts, Crush Sleeve, Gasket, Gear Marking Compound, Loctite, and Brush.
i know i am going to need fluid, and i was wondering what fluid would be the best bet, and also, do i need the limited slip additive? i just want to make sure i am getting all the right stuff before i go out and start this project

2.73 gear is a 2 series carrier, the 3.73's you order must be for a 2 series carrier.
94 is an Auburn, you cant run synthetic with an auburn so get 2 quarts 80w-90 conventional GL-5 gear lube and a bottle of posi additive
