    Matt take a 12volt drill battery with the window electrical female connector, strip the two wires and stick them on the drill battery then to the door regulator motor it will either go up or down depending on how you touch the stripped wires to the drill battery. We did it all the time working at the Ford Factory on the door line I did thousands of door regulator and glass installs.

    When you are ready to install the 4:10 gears take the parts to a shop or bring in someone that knows what they are doing. Not just a bolt in and go project. Pinion depth and gear backlash need to be set up precisely or you will get gear noise and premature gear ware. Requires some specialty tools for the measurements and an assortment of shims to make the adjustments.

      Shawn Taylor I just did it with a bronco, put in a locker and re-geared to 4:56. Not too complicated, he can have someone check his work when he's done if he's worried. Pretty much if he has just a few special tools, less than $100 and gets a good wipe and backlash it will probably be better than most shops he'll take it to.
