Differential install "kit" I'm planning to drop in a TrueTrac and it was recommended by the friend (that works at a local speed shop) that will be doing the install to also pick up a "install kit".
This will be the first time I have dealt with preparing for a differential swap so I was not 100% on what is included in a "install kit".
Anyone with P/N's for these kits? I'm assuming you can pick them up from Summit/Jegs for a 7.5" GM 10-bolt correct?
Thanks for any help.

Ratech makes a good one from what I can tell... their part numbers are for Timken bearings for example.

Looking that P/N up on Ratech's website they list Koyo bearings and not Timken ones.

Looking around at Koyo bearings in general, it seems they are also a very large bearing supplier. I have never heard of them.
I found a Motive install kit on Jegs R7.5GRMKT for $95

Yukon Ive read nothing but good about the Yukon stuff http://www.yukongear.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProdID=970
I've tried the Ratech kit and was not too pleased. Didn't care for the shims included. Ratech had Koyo bearings also, which was actually what I pulled out of my stock unit. The Yukon kit above uses all Timken bearings.
