[QUOTE="Chris, post: 428288, member: 1"] 1. There's no need to do any of that whatsoever period. Your Dana 30 is more than fine with 35s as long as you upgrade the axle shafts. Nothing else is needed. The front axle doesn't see nearly as much abuse as the rear axle, so it's not a big deal. 2. Re-gearing usually runs around $600 or so for parts and anywhere between $300 to $600 per axle for labor, so expect labor to be around $600 to $1200. 3. Lockers should be added at the time of the re-gear, as it won't end up costing much extra for labor. You'll probably end up spending around $2000 or so in parts and additional labor. As for the gear ratio, you didn't tell us if you have an auto or a manual, which is absolutely crucial information in determining which gear ratio you should be running, [/QUOTE]
