When swapping out rear end gears...

Through the help of fellow Z brethren (thanks guys) I have established that I have 390 gears in the rear end...I'm gonna swap back in the stock gears but was wondering if it would be a direct connect in or if I had to swap out anything else like the rings or somethin...

This would be more appropriate in the Drivetrain section...but, for a Rookie working with differentials, your best bet is to buy a complete diff with 3.54 gears and just swap it in place of your 3.90 diff. This is probably the cheapest way to go, also.

Mike is correct. The carrier has a stamped letter that must be used in conjuction with the same lettered casing I believe. When the two become different, the the shims will most likely be different too. To be safe, a complete swapping of the whole differential is the safest way to go. Those shims are very expensive from the dealer.
