Everyone complains about gear setup, and I'll admit I've never attempted it.
I need to regear my truck, and the $1500 is killing me.
Is it tackleable, or am I doomed to pay the piper......

Dunno probably, considering i've found enough damage in my axle that I'm going to need to order new parts.

my d30 is done, just need to get the d44 done and ill be back in business
overall, my friend jeff did almost all the work on it at his own shop. We made set up bearings out of the old bearings and that was a def help, cauase it needed to be taken apart and be put back together five or six times before it was right.
overall its not really that hard, just very time consuming and you need to be patient and make sure everything is done right

I got a good pattern on the rear today and am just waiting on the torque wrench, locker parts. and axle shaft to put it back in. I'm working on pulling the 30, but its raining like a b**** and not very motivating.

Got the front pattern in 6 tries, and its all back together now. Took the rig for a 20 mile test drive tonight and was pleased with the results, once they are worn in i'll flog on them a bit. All thats left to do is replace my rear brakes and its trail ready.
