Gear / Locker Install

BFR250SD · #1 (**permalink**) 07-28-2005, 08:52 AM

Anybody know a GOOD shop to get gears and ARB's installed in the Auburn area. The cost really isn't a "MAJOR" issue, I want it done right and me and gears don't get along.

I'll work on anything else on my truck, but not those.

Thanks,
BFR

hey I am kinda new to Auburn myself but I am currently trying to get a job at Performance Truck Center in Opelika(beside Durango on Opelika Road). I don't think they can perform the operation but I am positive they can tell you who can. Let me know how it goes cuz I went to Dixie Offroaders in Pell City and they said total cost for a 3.55 to a 4.11 gear swap would be close to $800!

Performance doesn't do anything that deals with engine, trans, gears, etc. It's more of an accessory store. They will do lift kits, but they are usually way out of the normal price range. They have no staff mechanics, they task it out.

Best place I've found so far is Truck Stuff, over near Tiger Town. Good bunch of guys, pretty easy to deal with.

Ok well the only other place that I have heard of is off from the back window of a F150 4wd parked at Donaldson Filtration. The sticker had a number on it but I don't remember it off hand. If I swing by there again I will get the number and post it to you. You could also try calling Foy Union. They are suppose to answer any question that you ask them. The number is 334-844-4244. Sorry I can't help you anymore at this time.

Oh I'm sorry, I thought I replied back. Truck Stuff is doing my whole setup for $1K. Gears, lockers, compressor, all of it. The next cheapest price I found was $1400. Thanks.

Ok cool. Maybe I will go by there and check out your truck. What gears are you getting anyways?

Genuine Gear 4.56's, ARB's front and rear and the compressor.

I just started to. I never knew about them until a few weeks ago. I posted up in the ford forum. A little slow over there though.

Where you at anyways? I'm still in Afghanistan, won't be home until Jan.
