I got a nice chunk of cash for my birthday and I was thinking of putting it towards my car. I'd like to to get a lower set of gears for the rear end.
Right now I have a 7.5" open rear with 2.56 gears. It's all stock. I also have a 200R4 with overdrive.
Two things; first, is changing the ring and pinion gears out something you can do by yourself with some jackstands and wrenches? And second, Im thinking about going up to 3.42s (I would do 3.23s but couldn't find any). On Summit, I'd want to get a "thick" set right? Because I have a 2 series carrier and regular 3.42s are meant for a 3 series?
Thanks!
