Default 2005 Mustang V6 bad timing to order gears, just venting

got my car running good, so i couldnt wait any longer to get a lsd, a.m. had the stuff on sale so i figured i might as well get a 3.73 gear and bearing kit and hit the track and have fun for the summer. ordered it a month or so ago, and they were kind enough to tell me right away the gear was backordered and i chose to wait on the other items till the gears came in, in a couple weeks. then it got bumped to the middle of june. so i`m thinking any day now, well now its suppose to be the middle of august. guess instead of looking at nitto 555`s, i might as well check out the snow tires kinda frustrating.

awww man, i feel for ya. you sure didnt need to have any more problems for a while. but i know you`ll get her back on the road. i thought about your gears when i wrote this post but i`d rather go brand new i think and brake them in myself. even with the 4.10`s, your not gonna beat the mighty auto they are just too fast if you dont change your gear, maybe we could go a round with both having 3.73`s. since your touring the country looking for races; ever been to missouri?

sorry to hear about your order trouble, (thats why i ordered 4.10's!!!!) you should just go 4.10, best mod ive ever done. i tell you, its like having a completely different transmission, instead of having 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, OD
its like -1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4.5, because 1st now pulls like a completely new gear, and 2nd gear pulls like 1st gear used to, its insane fun!
