General Tech Who does axle setups in Utah?

[eprobe]

Dear friends;

I need to install 3.31 gears in my Dana 44 in my CJ-5 Heep. That's r and p, case, bearings, the whole shebang.

AAMPCO in Provo wants $270. Anybody know someone who'll do it for less $$?

I'm in Mt. Pleasant. That's near the center of Utah. I'll drive as far as N. Salt Lake, Delta or Cedar City.

Thanks, all!

The place in Kamas was doing them for $100 as a special if you buy the R&P and install kit from them. I don't know if that ended.

That's a pretty fair price.

Sexton Offroad, Kamas.
6 States in Orem, or SLC
4Wheelparts in SLC
Ben Hanks Racing, Sandy

There are more, but those are the best for quality work.

I'd recommend rollover motorsports. He did mine and they have lasted for 2 yrs now.

If you have access to a bearing puller and a dial indicator do them yourself i have the randis ring and pinion bearing puller and it works great

I like Radjeeper and I've bought parts from him before but I can't afford $350 to stuff these gears in.

Also, I've heard doing the gears yourself invites bad karma.

I have done quite a few sets in my own rigs I build differentials for Big Loaders and dump trucks on a daily basis there a little different but same basic set-up if you wanna bring it up to Tooele PM me

I set up both my front and rear gears as well as other peoples with zero problems, and 1000's of miles later still no problems. You could do as skippy said get a dial indiactor and gear paint and do it your self. everyone is scared to try but the people that do gear installs had to start somewhere.
That said if your not up to it the radjeeper is very good and he may not be the cheapest, i don't know, but i work there part time and the guy who does gears is very good and experienced
