You want to do the solid spacers and new bearings while you are in there. Doing Diff work is not simple, its a lot of measuring and can require some special tools for measuring backlash, and special torque wrenches to measure rolling resistance.

I called Weir last Monday and my stuff arrived this Monday. I had called him about 2 weeks prior to ordering and he told me it was a good idea to find an experienced differential tech before I bought anything, and I did just that. After we hung up he sent me a list of parts and told me when I was ready to order to pick what I wanted from the list. He recommended a 4.56 ratio for me. The rest of the stuff on the list was 2 stub shaft seals, pinion seal, inner pinion bearing, outer pinion bearing, FRS solid spacer kit, pinion nut, and 2 special-order OEM carrier bearings.

Talked to wier today, good guy, clear communication. Putting a 4.88 in my manual. It's (way) cheaper to go through him. He did mention us 86 guys are keeping him busy.
His email is full. Give him a call, leave a number. Left him a message Friday he called me Tuesday. Put it this way...with everything except shims it cost me less than the cusco... P.s. he might be looking for a ride in an 86 if any of you are in SoCal |

Your best bet with weir is through email. Payment was done through PayPal and although it's not on there website, they do have the 4.88 option.

Pat quoted me 4-5 hour install time. I haven't had everything arrive yet and my car is still in storage. The dollar is crap right now so it doesn't make it better. I'm also doing a diff cover, AL driveshaft and MFactory 1.5way LSD at the same time.

I called Pat this morning to ask about setting up a group buy for you guys. He said 4-5 people would be enough. If you're interested give him a call at 905-403-9888 you can ask for Dan (Pat's brother) or Pat. Tell them you talked to Paul so they know what to put your order for a group buy.
