This is not an ovrly complex jod to do in the driveway on a saturday
Not a complex job to do in the driveway, rent a pick up from lowes/ home depot and pick up a rear locally.
be clear here, if the rear end is not good and doesn't work is a different statement than it won't work because it didn't fit. they are basically telling you if the rear end is NFG you will have to pay for a second replacement to go in it, more fluids. another new set of u-bolts, more shop supplies, more disposal fees, and whatever else is involved. A salvage yard will keep sending parts till you get a good one, but that's the end of their involvement/warrantee. I have watched people supply their own salvage engines for an engine R&R and it turns into several thousands of dollars by time you're on the third one and get a good one. Engines are a different story but an example of how doing things this way can get away from you.That's what they told me already. I have to pay and there's no guarantee that it'll work (I'm positive it will, they're more worried than I am). I'm willing to take the chance though bc so may others here have done it before.
The only reason why I'm not doing this myself is bc I can barely fit my truck in the driveway as is. Every salvage yard I've called also won't ship to residential addresses either so I'm kind of stuck with hope, prayers, and anxiety.
