Default A shop to install 4.10's in Round Rock/Austin area?

I have a 2001 F150 with 3.55 stock tires, I want to upgrade it to 4.10 to get a bit more take off the line, I drive mostly city driving and hardly highway and if I do go highway I 'try' to obey speed limit.

Can you guys give me a few places I can call and get price to get this installed.

As it is right now, I got a pinion seal leak and a shop is charging me $200 to change the seal. I am thinking I might as well upgrade to 4.10 since I want that anyway and pay towards that.

Thanks in advance.

Check with Round 2 Offroad. I know they deal mostly with jeeps but John has work on a few of my trucks. They are in cedar park

Round 2 came back with a price of $1040 for 8.8 Yukon gears with tinker master bearing and seal kit, is that a normal price?

My truck is RWD bwt

That is everything, I just drop the truck off and drive out when they are done. They buy everything and do the install, on and the gears are 4.11 I doubt that doesn't make a huge difference?

Ok, so I got this installed last week.. and if you guys are wondering what's the big hype about, stop thinking about it and just do it. I just can't believe I waited this long to do this, I have auto with 285/75/16 tires I can't spin the tires but I haven't try hard enough.

I used Round 2 Offroad recommended by loneeco and they were great, if you are in the military active/inactive they give 10% off, so I ended up paying $875 out the door. They recommended I take it easy for the first 500 miles, then go back and they will change the diff oil and I should be all good.

Even tough I didn't get on it hard yet, it's a big difference.
