Rear differential
Can someone tell me how difficult it is to change the gear carrier in my 91. In thinking of going to 3:07 to give it a little more performance. Did the trans myself with no lift or trans. Jack. Very capable mechanic but never did. C4 rear. Thanks guys.

It is not very difficult to change the carrier. The biggest pita is getting the rear back in. An extra set of hands are nice. Also you want to update your u-joints too since all is disconnected. If you have a FSM, you will have all you need as far as the procedure. The 3.07 is a very nice upgrade.

It's not that difficult in swapping rears.
I did mine on jack stands in the driveway.
the most difficult part is unbolting the C beam from the Diff.
Those 2 bolts on top of the C beam require a wrench on them to they don't spin with you unbolt from the bottom.
