Gear Swapping
Alright, I'm going to ask you guys for advice on this again.
I want to get rid of my useless 2.73 gears as I've posted before. If i bought these gears and the 8.8 rebuild kit that they have listed on the bottom of the page, would I need anything else?

Also what tools would I need? And on a scale of 1-10 how hard is it to do?
Excuse the novice question, I've never rebuilt a rear end before.

Some measuring devices to check back lash and other stuff. But here are some sight that helped me when I rebuilt mine. BTW that is a good price, about average. Ipaid about that for 4.56 gears.
