Today I installed some 3.73's in a certain formula...I took some pix & did a small write up to help people decide if they can do this themselves, or need to have a shop do it.

Nice write up....I think it would really help to have pics of measuring backlash and a correct gear mesh pattern. If you have not done it before, it may not make any sense to some people. Good job though.

Very good write up. I'll make this a sticky.

Very deatailed,


I found this In search of rebuilding my Rear, But....Without a lift, I dont know If Id want to tackle a Job like that on the ground..:thumbsup:

That is about as detailed as it gets. I am considering doing my rear, and that just made me feel pretty confident that I can do it. I just need the pullers/installers for the bearings and races, as I imagine that makes life much simpler.

AWESOME Write-up.

Read the article, 17a in particular.

What a great write up. I am smart enough to know that is waaaay beyond me. How long should an average install take w/ t/c done by a professional so I know what I am in for. Too bad you are 10 hours away.

 

[GTP231]

Book time is around 5 IIRC. I would say average is 3.5 - 4 hours. Actually miss doing them on a neasr daily basis

 

[Car nut]

Thanks for the reply. Now I have an idea what it should cost. Too bad your so far b/c I would let you miss them a little less. Now I need to find the calculator chart somewhere so I can see what rpms I will be spinning @ 70. Right now it's about 1800 rpms. My t/a may get better milage then my dd 01 Maxima? Im sure it would be a different car w/ 3.73s in it.
