Not gonna lie, I'm a bit anxious since this will definitely be one of the more involved projects I've done. I've been planning for this for a while. I already have new bearings and axle seals sitting in the garage. Maybe I should budget a bit more for the swear jar?

If anyone is in the LA county area and is in on the group buy, if you are willing to drop off your tranny to us (we can't work directly on vehicles due to zoning regulations) for a day or two, we can crack it open and check out what's involved. If it's anything like the Focus ST trans, then it's simple as it's just like any other diff install (we do literally thousands of transmission/diff rebuilds every year at our facility).
From there (i.e after working out a cost), if anyone wants to to drop off or ship us their transmission, we will more than happily install your LSD for you.

Probably over the next week or so (or until stock runs out!)
Mueller motorwerks (they time trial a First, below) in WI quoted me $648 in labor (8hrs pretax) with a 10% military discount.... So about $1300 all in...I think I'll wait on the LSD, (see if my input shaft bearing fails again) and opt for coils this year as the big upgrade, then I can fit some wider tread on... Next year will be the LSD
