Thanks

I installed 3.73:1 gears from Motivated gear and kit coast about $300 and $200 for labor. If you do it your self you can save about $200.

...equals a busted rear end. Gears have to be set to within a thousandth of an inch, otherwise they will fail prematurely and damage many internal components.

If you make an appointment, it'll take maybe 4 hours for the shop to get around to it...if you just roll up there, they'll probably want to keep the car there overnight

If you do it your self you can save about $200.

No, it'll cost you more should you botch the install

i got mine done for about $450 total. and dont buy new gm gears average cost is like $800-900. i am not saying the gm gears are not good but just like typical gm they price themselfs outta the market.
