I just did mine and had 128k and ordered the $100 install kit from Summit and got my 4.10 gears and did them myself. The kit had all new bearings, for the axles and all, plus all new seals, shims and bolts plus the rear gasket. It did the job and works great. If you totalling out at about $700 why nor just buy a whole new rear end minus the axles from Ford for that? Brande new everything, and you can get them in various gear ratios including 4.10.
