Where to get Kaaz & Axles Installed?
 
Where do I go to get Kaaz and axles installed. I am located in the Central valley but would consider traveling to get it done right.

And how much do they normally charge? I have been quoted 500, but I hope I can get it done cheaper than that.

Also how long does it usually take to replace the stock torsen and axles with the kaaz unit?

Thanx

...wtf? You replace the axles to install a diff? o.O Why doesn't that sound right?

I think $500 is a lot... but it is a f'ing PITA labor to pull the pumpkin... so that might be how much it costs man. It's a half a day job at the very least even if you're good.

I will be replacing both the stock torsen and stock axles.

Anyone else know a good place to do the work?

Ask Dave, he'd probably do it.

To help the next guy, Henry at Mazdatrix said he'd do the kaaz and axles install for $250.

Don't you have to adjust the KAAZ LSD when you install it? I don't think it's a drop in done deal.

I'll be purchasing one eventually, but it's last on my list for modifications.

Forget Mazdatrix they couldn't even install my KAAZ LSD which was really funny to me.
I went everywhere , Rotary Power, Racing Beat, and no one was able to do it.

Just go to KAAZUSA and they will do it right the first time

i could also do it, about 45 miles north of sacramento.

it would be around $250/labor out of vehicle for the LSD($350 if the differential is in the car with axle(s) replacement) if it is a drop in unit, if the case needs to be machined it will cost additional. the bearings will also need to be replaced, if the assembly does not come with carrier bearings.

Kaaz has offered to do do it for 250. That is including installation of cv joints, new fluids, and they'll even break it in and replace the fluids one last time.

They are really hooking you up if they are doing all of that, but then again I got the KAAZ LSD, with all new bearings in the diff with a new crush tube, and my 4.33 gears.

The only thing is I had to break it in myself but couldn't be happier with their work. :bigthumb:
