Also have you guys assembled this yourself or had them do it for the like $80 bucks they charge? Thinking it might be easier to just have them assemble

For what you're spending and what it takes for them to assemble it....have them do it. That way, all you have to worry about is installing it...

I was just thinking it might be nice to be able to drive the car still until I was completely ready for the install

You have time to still drive the vehicle as we do not need your components until the last week of the build. Complete assembly is $100, once we assemble it completely it comes back to you ready to bolt in and is the only housing on the market that goes back in just like the 10-bolt came out.

We sure can, nothing cooler than getting to see your rear end go together right before your own eyes..
