Called (3) dealerships in the area, said they wouldn't or couldn't do.
One was even a SVT dealership (Downs Ford in Toms River)

Local mechanic says I need to buy an installation kit, but he could do it?????

Doing some searches here, it seems that $200-$300 is reasonable cost for labor @ a speed shop.

I have a friend that knows a Ford mechanic that will do it on a Saturday @ a Ford dealership, he states: "Joe said he will do your gears for $375.00. You must supply gear oil 18.00/ quart x3. New bearing 12.00 and 8.00 for additive. Gasket 5.00." ????????

I'm 5 minutes from the Delaware Memmeriol Bridge, can someone direct me to a shop that I can be confident in???

I called Downs Ford about installing a differential. They referred me to a place called Outrageous Mustangs. I don't have the number or address on me now. They quoted me about $450 to install with new bearings.

Try Ramsey FLM in Rising Sun, MD, about 30 mins. from Pennsgrove. 410-658-4801. They are a SVT dealer and Marauder friendly. Had my gears installed there, and uploaded program to PCM myself.

Most of the good guys in NJ are about one hour from you. Outrageous Mustangs is in Jackson, LaRocca's Performance (my personal fav) is in Englishtown, and JDM Engineering is in Freehold. I'm sure you should be able to find other shops down near ATCO. Try No Limits Performance.

A good price (in this area) for gear installs is $275. The average price around here is about $500... not including the gears.
