Gears only done by a shop could be around 1500 more or less.....

I regeared to 4.56 both axles, air lockers on both plus sleeved and gusseted the front D30 and it was 3400 out the door
 
If you have a D30 I would rethink the 5.13's in it. The R&P is super tiny with a 5.13 in a D30. 4.88's will be good and the R&P is a bit bigger.

Maybe Eddie will chime in on this one and give a little insite for those of use with D30 front and D44 rear's. want to make sure i get it right when the time comes. his choice of brands, what all is needed, good C gussets to throw on, etc etc.

for 35 and such with the 3.8 you want to get the power back. 4.88 will get you to stock but 5.13 will get you some more power but less top end speed. that's all up to you to decide what you want. 5.13 is the max you can really go before you start breaking things like the one guy said. when it comes to gear brands they are all pretty much Chinese made from what I've heard and there's not a big difference in brands. But Cs always go with the evos

I would drive to EVO in Fullerton. $999 for gears and install. I don't think you could find it cheaper anywhere else. Even with the gas to get there.
