Where are you getting the work done?

Did you go with Nitro gearset or is the shop taking care of parts and labor?


I was referred by multiple transmission and off road shops to go to Oceanside Driveline in Oceanside, CA. I ordered the gears through them as they know what the best companies are as far as 1. warranty, if there is an issue and 2. This is what they do on a daily basis and they have experience with the most reliable products available. One of the brands they recommended was Ford Performance and the other I cant remember. I will update this with the brand they used when I pick her up. As a bonus, they have great google reviews.

Update
They used Motive gears. The Performance line. This is their high end gears.

I added the rear "Raptor" Bed Decal in Satin/Matte Black AND installed the magical hidden Tailgate Damper Kit, so my son won't rip the tailgate off when he puts his Basketball/Baseball bags in!

These big/long Decals can be difficult to get right, but for anyone doing this or similar...Best approach is the "Hinge" Method and use a spray/wet application with a couple drops of Dishwashing liquid to a cup or so of water...Allows you to get every bubble out and move around as needed. If interested...Google "Hinge Method Decal Application". You basically put a strip of tape in the center and one on each end...Then fold back and apply 1/2 at a time. Lightly mist the soapy water solution on the surface and back of the decal. Works great. I have used that method many time.
