OK Q.C. PEOPLE come inside----->

I have the rear end(2 series) out of the firebird sittin here. I also have a limited slip(also 2 series) out of an 83Z. I've got the correct spline axels for the posi too.

I need help puttin it together. Hopefully there is someone local who can help me out.

All the storys about chatter, whine and broken components have gotten me freaked out to the point I want some help.

Or on another note is there a reputable shop that can do it for me without steallin my wallet?

Give me some ideas everyone.

it isn't hard to do, but you do need the proper tools to install the gears correctly.
