Colo Spgs Gear install shop

[element981]

I am looking for a good reasonable place to get my 5.13 installed. I was planning on having the guy I bought them from do the install, but he keeps blowing me off.

By the way Predator is a rip off. They wanted $1200+ just to do the install.

dont use 4 wheel parts.

try CrazyEd, Armorology, Rockware

Wow thats alot from Pedator I had an excellent experiance with them but everyone did say they were expensive. Other than that I would say 4 wheel parts as well

I met the owner from Nationwide Drivetrain and Axle on Monday. He told me that his head tech, Walt, has been installing gears for 18 years, and claimed that he was the best in town. He told me that He could get JK 5.13's within 3 days.
I had already pre-paid Predator 3 months ago for the gears and install, and have been waiting and waiting for the gears to come in. I got sick of waiting, so I asked Predator for a full refund. They were very proffessional and cooperative about it, and promptly refunded my money.:)
On Wednesday, I had Walt and Ron from Nationwide order them up. They arrived on Friday, and installed them on Saturday (yesterday)!!
I dropped the JK off at 8:30am and they had them done at 3pm. They did a great job, and even touched up the axles with a fresh coat of paint. They also use a bedliner type coating on the leading edge of the front axle. All new bearings and inner-axle seals. Wow, all of this for $1347 OUT THE DOOR!!
They are located on Platte, next to where Express Auto used to be. On the upper side of that frontage road. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!:):)

That XJ is one of my builds. Started with 31's, and went all the way to D60's and 40" Pitbulls.
That price included the gears, install kits, axle seals, and labor. Remember that JK 44's are different than standard 44's. They are bigger, and thus more expensive.
Here's another shot of the XJ for ya...
