Has anyone done the install on one of these. I'm thinking about putting one in this summer, but not sure if I can handle the job. I'm pretty good with this type of stuff (I'm a mechanical engineer afterall) but the most complicated thing I've ever done is replace the transmission in my YJ a couple years back. Most of the hands on mechanic work I've done has been kind of brute force. This seems like it might be a pretty detailed job. I just don't want to mess my ride up too bad. Any insight is appreciated.

You'll have to switch your ring gear from the current differential to the OX, which will take some precise measurements with specific tools to make sure it goes back together correctly. This is better left to the pros than the average shade-tree mechanic.[addsig]
