Considering that I have replaced my stock rearend twice (adds up to some real money) that is a good price for such a hardy rearend. A 12-bolt will most likely be my next upgrade as well. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Make sure you get an estimate of shipping costs, some people have been surprised by $300 bills plus special handling costs once it arrives at the local shipping dock (and possible storage costs if it stays on the dock too long). it happened to me last year <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Talking about shipping, I was at work so I wasn't there to sighn for my rearend. When I got home it looked like the package Jim Carry delivered in "Ace Ventura Pet Detective". I called them up and told them that they knocked a couple studs out of my axles, bent and scratched my cover and my flanges were all knicked up. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />
