Default Re: *Needed* 20 to Pre-order Wavetrac LSD for SLK32/SRT-6

Well, I just gotta figure that they are working on producing these units
as they took our deposits and the word was that no money would change
hands unless there was going to be a production run. So, though I'd like
to have had the new differential last week, I'm just considering this an
exercise in patience.

But I, like you, am getting a little antsy. I'm hoping to have this installed
before the next GTG at the Dragon. Speaking of which (install that is), I'm
not sure I'm up to the task of installing this unit myself after reading
through the procedure in the Service Manaul. So, I gave Jason a call at
BuckHead Imports to see what it would cost to have them do the install.

So, as Buckhead Imports now has a new performance shop, he transfered
me over there and I spoke with Tony (nice to have the guy who tuned
my car so close) and was quoted a price of $1200.00 for the install, if I
have them do all the work (i.e. drop of car and pick back up when the
diff is installed). Much cheaper if I were to pull the diff myself and bring
it in, but I'm not sure I want to do all the work necessary to pull the unit,
as that's most of the "hard" work. So, I'm saving my duckies.

Good luck to us all,

Coyote
