Gear install in SoCali?

lazyboy31614@aol.com · 04-18-2009, 07:50 PM

I'm looking to get 3.73 gears installed on my 05 mustang GT. Are there any shops in southern California that someone would recommend?

For gears, I say go with a specialty shop. These guys did my 4.10's, and they have been silent since the word go.....They know their stuff......

Thanks for the input you guys! Just a few more questions i hope you guys don't mind. How much am i looking at for the parts and labor if i were to go to one of theses shops? Also how long does the install take? Can i like drop my car off early morning and pick it up late afternoon or would it be the next day or a few days?

Mine was dropped off at 6am, done by noon....I believe the labor for the gear install was 375. Yeah, it can be done cheaper, but, like I said, silent since the word go....
Gears you can buy on line for like 175, plus install kit, plus fluids of choice....

What area of So. Cal do you live? If you are in San Diego County, I would recommend Classic Performance Repair or SD gear and axle.

500-550 all in

IMO if the price of the parts from the shop is competitive to what is available online, buy them from the shop.
