| BEFORE you take to get the gears installed order ALL of the following: -ALL new bearings, many say no need but they are not expensive and good insurance -ALL new seals, you cannot reuse the old ones -Shim kit -Crush collars Some of the above parts for the Z are no longer available or on long, LOOOOOOONNNNG back orders. No worries, get ones for the same rear end (Armada and QX45 use the same rear end). I am learing the hard way since the shop mine is at is having trouble (I have been calling around as well) finding the crush collar. Of course had I ordered this prior I would not be without my Z waiting on a stupid $25 part.... Also, since they will have the rear subframe off might consider getting the urethane subframe bushings installed. I am not as my OEM ones are in excellent shape. Just a thought...
