I am buying a spare pumpkin that I want to put 4:10 gears in. Please give me the name of anyone you know who does a good job with this. Shipping it away is OK.

Which Palm Beach? I'd certainly consider a "local build" before "shipping it off"! The build needs "run-in" and if I had questions I'd certainly like the builder close.

The quality of your "spare buy" is very important. If you've a sound rear now it could be wise to do the build on yours. It could actually be less expensive. Do you need what you have now for a spare?
