ive had enough of it too, i couldnt stand it any longer. i just ordered a lsd, 3.73 gears and a bearing install kit from am. the differential is on sale. the gears on are sale too but they are out of stock for a couple weeks. then you`ll have to get it installed if your not up to the task. with install around 650.00......or alot of guys are buying the gt takeoff rear ends for around 8-900 and installing those. the 7.5 rear end will kick some butt, but if your gonna go supercharger you might want the 8.8. i`m gonna save some cash and have some fun with the 7.5, then down the raod if i go sc, i can at least sell the 7.5 rear end with posi and gears and get something out of it, then swap to the 8.8 oh ya, if your gonna order from am, pm amnick and get the discount code. made a nice difference in the price, thanks nick

i actually posted a set of gears, a limited slip differential, and a bearing kit online. I bought it from American muscle about 6 weeks ago but decided not to have it installed after all. everything is brand new in the box and the buy it now price is about $75 dollars cheaper than it is on American Muscle. If you want to try to buy it even cheaper it is also for sale as an auction.

If your interested go to ebay and search "mustang v6 4.10 gears bearing"

a t-lok and 3.73 gears will get you moving in a hurry!!! plus doing burnouts are alot more fun with two wheels spinning. prepare for a lose of MPG though, but most people dont care

3.55 is not worth it, either 3.73 which i went or 4.10 Actually i prefer 4.10 for auto because my 3.73 is still drops rpm low with O/D off but is great on hwy. I didnt go 4.10 because i was scared of D/S failure and dont have money to go aluminum D/S. Anyway gears and Tlock is one of the best bang for the buck mod that will get you moving like no other
