your first gear will also be super short, and all gears after that you will move through quicker.

ive been back and forth between getting them and not.

also, you have a 7at so you will also need a manuel rear end to run 4.08's.
It will run you close to $4k including labor to have this done just so you know.
Well that makes my decision easy!

How much would it be not including labor? I may have some friends who are very skilled with working on cars and maybe able to help me do it for a lot less.
