3.73 gear install
 
I was just wondering how difficult it is to do the gear install yourself?I have a ford service manual on the way and I know how to turn a wrench. So would that qualify me or is it too much of a hassle?

I got some insructions from a guy and installed my 4.10's in a afternoon. It was a peice of cake. I don't know why people think that they are so hard. I did it in my garage and I'm only 15! Just make sure you have a dial indactor..... I have the insructions if you need them.

Setting the pinion is the "hard" part. The tollerences are in the .008"s range. If you have the right equipment I don't think it is all THAT hard.
