yup. be aware to ask questions, to figure out which type of gearset you need (deeper, shallow, etc pinion).

you CAN get thicker ring gears to use your lower ratio carrier, but I don't recommend it...more rotational weight can sometimes mean vibrations. with axles, it's always a good idea to do it right.

Anyways just do your research and do what you think is going to be the best for you. But here is some advice to help you on your way....

1. If your getting into something your not familiar with, have a friend help and I prefer a smart friend.

2. Have a back up vehicle just in case things don't quite work out.

3. Most friends exspecially mine work for beer.

4. Beer, cigs, and gasoline not always the best choice.

5. Always make sure you have at least 1 fire extinguisher if number 4 does happen. Noboby likes wasting beer to put out a fire.

Now these advice might seem silly or pulling your leg. But it is good advice.

It's very good advise however beer will not put out a gas fire maybe you should add that to the list.
