If you never done it before, and you don't have the proper tools, you could have a "wonderful" learning experience.

lol ya I assumed there would be nothing easy about it. I will probably price local shops to see what they would charge. they are all just so dang expensive around here though.

GM high tech just did a article on swamping gears in a LS1 car. It was a good read and highlight the key mistakes people make. If you have never done one i would pick up a copy and figure out if you do in fact want to take it one or not.

May want to check with a shop that specializes in off road vehicles, they work on a lot of broken differentials.
