also the prices you quoted are just a bit high. I got my Yukon gears which are slightly better quality than precision gears and master kits for under $600 with V6 master kits which cost more than 4cyl. Precision gears can be had for over $100 less. and I got an ARB for $600 plus the Sun compressor for $250ish. labor was right around $700 so your prices are very accurate but I think it is better to use one compressor to take care of all your air needs rather than getting the weak ARB compressor and say a power tank to air up. with the 4.88's I am only at just about 3k RPM's at 70+ mph where as with 4.10's I was at like 2,300ish and mileage is still around 15+ average. I almost wish I had gone with 5.29's but I think 4.88's are the better all around choice and since I have a SC'd V6 I think I have enough torque to go around.

off roading, since they are $421@, so bought a cheap set of black steel wheels and put some cheap ProComp Mudders on them. In about 15 minutes can just switch wheels (including spare since have different sizes) and be on the road for the weekend.

I've got a 2nd gen the idea of slapping another ecu in there doesn't overly thrill me.
