Alex;

The only items they didn't mention in the kit are axel bearings & axel seals. I recomend replacing them also if your going this far. It won't add much to the over all cost. The reason you should replace them is the same gear lube that lubricates the gears, lubes the axel bearings. So any metal fragments that were in the lube get into all the bearings. $900 sounds like a much beter deal, as long as the guy knows his stuff.
