I've done a million gear setups. They're not technically difficult but you do need to have your head on straight and use some tools that aren't your typical weekend warrior stuff.

Perks of having an experienced bro who has all the tools.

Flying a plane isn't "hard" to do, as long as you know how. :)

I did my regear, with help, and it isn't for the feint of heart. It's long, tedious, and requires precision. The crush sleeve felt like it needs a trillion foot pounds of torque. With a lift, shop, and all the right tools, it was still quite challenging, especially if you have never done it before, or even just a few times. That will be the last time I ever regear anything, I'm over that noise.

I made a thread on it somewhere around here.

Edit: Here we go.

@PuddleJumper I read through the thread to see if Joe's Jeep Jungle was mentioned but since your buddy is teaching you how that's bleeping awesome and you don't need their details but someone else out there might.

They're in Sykesville MD, about an hour and half at most north of DC, 35 minutes NW of Baltimore. Good dudes.

I was quoted about $3,200 here in Massachusetts. About what I expected in this part of the country given the ranges I’ve seen
