Do you recommend the 38-4874 over the customer one? Is there much of a difference other than Chrome?
I can't answer that as I have never seen one of the custom ones up close....for the replacement ones....it looks like everything you need is there to replace your worn out one..
fairly simple swap...when you remove the collar that clamps on the splined shaft (under the hood)...be sure to remove the bolt completely....otherwise it won't come out because of the indention in the shaft...be sure to line the new one back up the same way...
Too bad you are limited to LMC....I bought a really nice rebuilt one for $300 from a guy on one of the boards...good luck with it...post questions if you need to...
