I know I need the above but what kind of other parts do I need? should i get one of the rebuild kits off of ebay?

Member BigGearHead will recommend you contact Randy's Ring and Pinion, and I agree with that recommendation. A lot of the sellers on Ebay have such good prices on their rebuild kits because most of the parts in them are sub-par stuff from overseas. Randy's offers quality kits with U.S. made parts in them. Timken brand bearings are the best ones to use. I only use installation kits with Timken stuff. Some of the sellers on Ebay have those kits, you just have to look at the description closely and make sure before buying. Motive Gear offers kits with Timken bearings. As far as the ring and pinion gears, try to stick with Yukon, U.S. Gear, or Richmond. Those companies offer good quality gearsets. Then of course you'll need a master bearing, or installation kit with pinion bearings, carrier bearings, crush sleeve, pinion seal, shims, marking compound, etc.

so after thinking this over for days I realized with how I drive the camaro Im crazy rebuilding the 9 bolt its for sale and my old ten bolt that needs rebuilt is also forsale..

Im going to pick up a 4th gen rear for now already got new wheels and save up for a converted 9in or 12 bolt I plan on keeping the car and in 10 years its going to be 100 times harder to find parts for that dumb *** 9 bolt who cares how strong it is at that point
