I know I have to do the front end also, but what they want for a Gear Vendors OD unit, 2 sets of rings and pinions, w/ labor has to be a little cheaper??

Auto

And with the Gear Vendors comes a drive shaft shortening or do they come with a shorter shaft?? And I forget how they bolt up, before or after the t-case (too lazy to look it up)

You would think its gotta be after the transfer case otherwise it would just screw everything up and make it more difficult than it needs to be, cause those OD units are pretty long

It is 14" long and it goes after the transfer case. I talked to Mike at GV today.
