We have done numerous gear installations on f-bodies and y-bodies. F-Body gear installations are $375 + fluids.

and ours dont whine or leak and all the bearings and races are changed most shops dont change the bearings or races thats where most noise can come from saves them 60 in parts and 1 hour labor we dont cut corners at TTP you get what you pay for . you can cut corners and you can save money but its not worth it in the end

The gears would be $290 includes the Ratech installation kit, all bearings/races/pinion nut/seal.

Most shops just take a shim stack and throw the rears back together. The proper way to do it is get all of your measurements correct.

$290 + $375 install = $665.00
