    Anyone use these kits? Herm has the best prices that I've found. i never bought from him, but i've heard nothing but good things about his stuff. I'm looking at the T90 rebuild kit and the Dana 18 rebuild kit. I have no damage to either my trans or transfer case, I just want all new bearings, gaskets, seals, syncros, and any other of the typical wear items. Anyone buy either of these kits? What are your impressions? Anywhere else I should consider buying from?
    Here's the link to the kits i mention:

    Novak's kit contains a second gear, Herm's doesn't - this may explain the big price difference between them and Herm. According to Novak's site, 2nd gear is a common wear item with T90s, and accounts for why many of them pop out of 2nd on decelleration. If it were mine, I'd call Herm and ask him about it. The minimum you'd want to do is replace the gaskets, seals, blocking rings, and thrust washers - you can source those parts separately, though it may be cheaper to buy a kit.
