Default Regearing Cost..??

I asked this in the OEM forum but I believe it should have been here.

Hey guys, I'm going to be rehearing my 99 Cherokee with a 6" lift and 33's to 4.56's. I've got a list of I think most the parts and wondered what your alls gear swaps were costing. Thanks for the input and correct anything I might have wrong or might have missed.

Rear Gears: $230
Front Gears: $230
Front D30 Carrier: $60
Rear Posi Unit: $450
Front Bearings and Install Kit: ???
Rear Bearings and Install Kit: ???

I'm just looking for parts cost, not labor for install. Anything I missed? Thanks for the help guys!!

Bearing kits are usually $100 or so each.everything else looks pretty spot on if you get it all separately. A bundle kit would be better.

It would really help to know what axles you have.

FWIW,
Skip the LSD. If you wheel at all you're much better off with a locker out back.

x2 on the locker if you wheel it. If it's more of a DD and not-so-much wheeling machine then a LSD will be fine.

It will see little if any wheeling. It wont be a DD but it will see quite a bit of road time and some interstate driving. It's our general hunting rig so I think a LSD would fit our needs better than a locker. I was looking on your website, it doesn't look like you have a LSD for the 8.25? What about a carrier for the D30?
