I took the 9-bolt out and had to carry both of the rears by myself..heavy, but not THAT bad. My dad got home when I was ready to put the 3.42 in, so he helped me line it all up. The biggest pain in the ass was getting the rusted bolts out. So I finally finished everything this afternoon (had to wait for the paint to dry on the calipers) and I took it for a ride. HUGE difference from the 2.77's. Only problem now is I need traction

I tried doing a few launches, first gear no traction, second gear..no traction. So I think tires are on my list of what to do next 8)
