Very good... thank you Mr Jerry. I also seen there are some rebuilds on flea bay for 200 with a core. Looks like some extra beer money for me

If it was my truck and i had a problem,,I think I would call redhead here in Seattle and see what it would cost to have them make you a box,and maybe even a quick ratio box like my Z28, but then my 06 only has less than 4,500 miles so I may never get the chance to do mine.

I second the redhead gears (somewhere in WA I think) I think my new box was @$350+core. With the redhead box and a steering brace from PSC for @$130 the truck is like brand new with 35"s and not one drop of fluid anywhere.
