Have a professional do it. Yes, it will cost you money, but the labor and prep work are important. You get what you pay for. Quick and cheap USUALLY results in "half ass" results.

You don't "have" to drag race in order to enjoy 3.91 gears. You bought a v8 Camaro because you wanted to have some fun driving, feeling that v8 kick in. The Camaro is a heavy car, and swapping out...

My Camaro may be a 2011, but I'm still getting stares and thumbs up. Just keep it clean and polished and it will look new. Time cannot diminish a classic design done right.

Then he can buy an extended warranty. Or, have a mechanic fully check it out. Lemon law should be national.

If that includes parts, wheel alignment, speedometer recalibration, gear oil, then their labor is DIRT cheap. Maybe they team approach the job and get it all done in 3 hours. Check out some feedback...

This is why I insured my car with Grundy. Since it's not a daily driver, I insured it for a guaranteed payout of $28,000 if anything happens.

$850 for labor AND parts, or just the labor and you bring the gears? My ring and pinion alone was $535. Something doesn't add up if that price is everything.

3.91 installation at dealership

A lot to remove. I stopped in halfway through my 3.91 gear installation. I'm glad a professional is doing this work.

Yep. I had mine professionally applied. However, the key to a great job is to have the paint "corrected" FIRST. That entails removing any swirl marks, etc., from the paint prior to Ceramic Pro.
