Default Gear install in DFW area?

Anyone have any recommendations for gear installs in the DFW area? I can't remember the one I'm thinking of from a couple of years ago, but I think they were out in the FW area.

I'd like to put 3:73's in my '02.

Thanks!

Jason fixed my old truck after I had someone who thought they knew what they were doing work on it. I had a Auburn Pro posi put in and the first guy used the wrong bearings which ate up my gears. Any of my future transmission or rear-end work will go to Jason.

Give me a call, we can do the job for you correctly the first time and in a timely manner.

Labor is $325.00, parts can be anywhere from $225.00 to $$375.00 depends on carrier and bearing condition. You'll know before we spend your money though!

I believe he charges about 150 labor and 200 for the motive gears... ive also seen him sell "used" gears installed for ~$200. but its been a while since ive seen that.

Jason(TDP) used to charge $400 for brand new GM gears(whatever ratio you want) INSTALLED, thats parts, labor, everything. He does a great job and it usually only takes him 3-4 hours on an F-Body if he doesnt have other cars. He is a good friend of mine and has built trannies for my C5 and Silverado, and installed gears in all of my Camaros that I have had. You will be happy with his work, I will pm you his #.
