I think it Abendx paid about $1200 including parts and labor to regear to 4:56s. I'm sure he'll be posting soon.

 

A local guy here quoted me $1100 for everything.:-staun

 

right on chad.... i paid around 1200 to re-gear.

unless you need a new carrier, this should be the price you'll pay.. a new carrier will run you another few bucks (~100).

gear size should not change the cost..... you are limited by the rear end (sterling 10.5) to 4.56 or 5.38.... (or higher)

you may want to put a locker in there while you have it open as the labor rate should not go up since it takes no more work while they are in there... i did mine after the fact and had to pay the labor all over again

 

thanks guys.i called a couple of shops and were told it would cost $1200 plus tax.one guy even told me that the 4:88 are coming out soon for the dana 60.he thought i had the 50.i'm really not sure..by the way, what does a locker do anyways?and how much are they?thanks again

I re-geared my 97 f-150 4x4 it cost me 180 for front gears and 180 for the rear. plus the shims ($50 kit) i did it myself. i did the rear one weekend. and the front the next. altho mine is a 8.8 axle i cant see the ring and pinoin costing too much more for the d60.
stock was 3.55 now 4.10 precision gear!!

Mine ran about 2300 for gears and lockers, the lockers themselves cost about 600 each. So if you subtract the cost of lockers, then my regear would have been around 1150, so I guess that's the going rate. Lockers will keep you from spinning one tire if you lose traction on that tire. There are pros and cons about running lockers, it depends on what you plan to do with your truck. Do an internet search about Detroit Lockers and you'll find a ton of info about them, and also limited slips.
ProGear did my gears, they are near San Diego if you're that far south. All they do is gears, and they set up many of the race cars/trucks in SoCal. They did an excellent job, and they were super careful about not getting my new truck all greasy which was really appreciated.

 

to re-gear your front and back should cost around $1200,,,thats what i'm paying to re-gear my 01 cc to 4.56......check out f-zero tire and off-road in glendora,,,,they are a bunch of kool guys!!!!!

 

We get between $500 and $800 to set up a rearend, ring&pinion and bearings and seals are extra. My partner handeles all the setups, he's been doing gears since he was 14, and is considered the top dog around here.
He does 90% of all the nascar modifieds we have at our 4 local tracks.
