Gears at John Eagle Lincoln Mercury. Attend a North Texas Marauders meeting to get joined up for preferred rates at the dealership. $300 or so for a gear install. For exhaust/headers, there's a shop in Duncanville that does all my work in that regard and have done 4-5 header installs on marauder at this point.

No issues with this shop. First class wrench- first class human being.

^^yup.. what they said!^^

Great place to have work done. They installed my powder coated valve covers and a rear sway bar,... one of these days they'll be installing a full Kook's exhaust. :D

They have done a few big brake conversions and Lightning Sway bar installs on a few Harley Trucks in our area too, headers and exhaust systems too, they do great work.
