What would be cheaper? A while back 10-bolt started making a really bad clunking noise. I swapped in another 10-bolt from my buddy's Camaro. Now I need to replace it.
I owe him a stock 10-bolt and he wants to spend additional money on taller gears. Now what would be the cheaper route?
A) Taking the clunking 10-bolt to a shop and having them rebuild it with taller gears.
B) Finding a good working order 10-bolt and having taller gears installed.
I know the price of a gear install with parts and laborl is about 650.
I plan to knock off about 100 bucks in buying a set of Richmond 3.73 gears from someone local. Your help is much appreciated.

Seems to me ive seen 10 bolts for $100 or so, id say if you could get one at a good price itd be cheaper to buy one and have the gears installed.
Does your buddy mind gear whine? Richmond are typically louder.
