Thanks Dave for the reference, Bench labor is less than on the casr labor. Give me a call when you can, need to know what you have and what you need to assemble your 8.8.

Yep have a shop do it.....Its not so much the INSTALL that is hard....Its shimming the ring and pinion properly.....If this cruital step is not correct, it can lead to noise all the way to complete system FAILLURE!!.

Have the pros do it!!
