May need to make this a RRE2010 project. Not to hijack but did you ever get your IDM modded yet Mike? If not I promise to help you with that.

$225, IIRC. Check ITP's site to make sure.

Rushmore it was $388.29 with shipping and $150.00 core charge. My trans has 141,000 on it when I did it. If you can turn a wrench you will have no problem doing this mod...
If your truck is high enuf to work under you don't need a lift, But I was able to us a lift and it made the job alot easier....It can get messy....

Nice to know there Peter, wasn't even aware Clay was selling them. I got mine before Clay went into business but would have bought from him in a heartbeat.
