Best and cheapest gear install

I live in Pearland and was wondering if any one had a recomendation of a shop that is known for good and cheap gear installs. I'm going 4:10's on an 08 Mustang Gt 5spd.

Cheap does not necessarily mean good work, always consider that.

I think PSI Performance in Webster would do gears, or any 4x4 shop. B&C offroad is supposed to be really good at gear installs.

What gears are you getting rid of? My ma has a trike with an 8.8" rear end we'd possibly like to do a gear swap on...

I gave G Force a call. They were the most expensive, he quoted $350 to install and then $200 for the gears....... Any ideas why so high?

Sounds cool, I have been there before. I bought an accufab t/b & plenum for my old 04 from a guy there. He was a pretty cool cat. Sold it to me dirt cheap too! I can not seem to remember his name, all I remember is he said he did the mustang work around the shop.

you got to think also why it's 550, you got gears, labor, gaskets, lube. i went to psi in webster last weekend and put 4:10's in they had it done in 2 hours.spent around 550. let me tell you, the car it so much more fun to drive
