I'm up in the air, but leaning toward the 3:73, there are 3:11 installed now. The Ford dealership said they would install OEM gears, and warrenty all the work, and any problems which may occur at the tune of $1100. That sounds very high to me, any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Sounds a bit high cost wise, I would to with the 3:73's, I had the 3:55's before changing to the 4:10's and although you'll feel a difference with the 3:55's I'm sure you'll still want more than that.

3:73's [sm=smiley20.gif]

you have 3:11s? did i read wrong, did you post wrong?

i thought the lowest they came in was 3:31

now i'm confused.

You have 3.31....

And 3.55 is not a good choice, most people (like me) try to change up from 3.55

I think 3.73 is a good choice to get mileage and performance but most people will say its not worth it and to go to 4.10

I say 3.90, but only Motive makes 3.90 and most people say they whine. I disagree. I think its all about who the installer is.

Anyways, you should be able to get gears for $200ish and, at the most, install for $500. Total $700. People get installs from as low as $200. Here in expensive arizona, a fair price is $400.

Add a tune from an online tuner, assuming you have a handheld tuner, and I dont thin gears should cost over $800 max, more like $700.

3.73

Don't even compare the two honestly.

I wasn't honestly 100% sure what the car had for gears, I know that they weren't 3:55 or 3:73, because those were options I didn't initially get. I called Tasca Ford Performance. the manager of the performance center said they were 3:11, that's all the info I have. The only way to tell for sure is to jack up the rearend and observe the wheel and drive shaft rotaion. That's all I have for info.

i'd go with 3:73s

by the way, how do you like your clear bra?

Hey now, i told you two to talk about what you got each other for V-day in the Off Topic section

Go lay down behind your car and look at the rearend cover, there will be a tag hanging off the right side and stamped on it will be your gear size. Takes 30 seconds and no jacking up of the car is neccessary ...

I'd say you're leaning in the right direction...
