    Looking to re-gear my 2020 to a 5.29 Nitro but don't know who to trust in town, I try to do all the work myself but this is a bit much for me. Anyone in San Antonio no a reproable shop I can trust to have this done right, only wanna do it once?

    I had mine done at a shop that is no longer in business - makes me wonder :confused:
    I know a guy and I'll ask but I can't speak for him. I'll let you know if he's got the time.
    Though I've never been, it looks like Twisted Axle on Bandera has good reviews and they're specialty. Can't speak as to their prices but $1400-1500 seems to be the general rate for full install front and rear.

    If you want a sweet new custom OVTune to go with those gears let me know - I got the goods!

    From what I see here on TW it should be in Austin, which is a bit of a drive but done several internet searches and cant find a garage in Austin with that name. Thanks for the rely.

    My pleasure! Those gears will really change the drive for you for the better dude. Before you install the gears, keep a close eye on when it downshifts to 5th and 4th (and sometimes 3rd!) on certain hills, and after you get the gears, drive those same hills and note how much less it happens.

    Head up to Leander and have @Texoma take care of you. He does good work and is fair. I've had both my trucks regeared by him and it's been smooth sailing ever since.
