Ring and Pinion Jig

I am changing my gears to 4.88's. Looking into doing it myself. Anyone have a good pic or description of a jig or garage set up to help with 3rd member gearing work?

There's like a bunch of stickies on most forums that have TONS of gear info....or google.

Zuk's website is fairly extensive. Just have the right tools...

Hmmmm...I have no idea. Either MC or a local Offroad/speed shop. Honestly, the last setup I had done was from a hole in the wall shop. I was very skeptical when I went to drop off the third but as I walked past the multiple offroad rigs in various build stages, I felt a little better. Plus, talking with the guy about various Toyota things I felt confident. I never had any issues with that setup either.

Maybe we could talk ZUK into holding a gear install training seminar. I'd pay good $$$ for that.
