Default Installing new gears, what all do I need?
Please let me know what type of install kit I need for a 2000 NBS truck. I hear a lot of the install kits come with the parts for 88-98 trucks or something like that. Let me know what all I need and point me to some sponsors if you have any suggestions.

Also, 8.5 10 bolt 30 spline correct? Thanks guys.
