Mine go in on Friday. After reading your post I'm even more excited. I'm putting on LCAs too. So jealous right now. My gears are in a box right next to me.

Gears are awesome. And despite what others might tell you here on the boards, in my '10 I had 4.10's and slapped a Roush M90 SC on it. It was a pure monster.

My 500 is still a better car, but the 4.10's are just awesome upgrade for the coin And LCA's should be on your list too!

Lower control arms. Will help give your rear end traction. Inexpensive and easy to install.

Lower control arms. The stock ones are a little weak and can lead to wheel hop. It's hard to describe wheel hop...it's a horrible shudder from the back end when you break traction. Its not good for the car.

Just about any aftermarket set you pickup will be far better than the stock Ford ones. If you have some decent tools and are somewhat handy, you can do them yourself but otherwise you might want to see if the folks who did your gears can do LCA installs too.

I've used these on 3 of my cars and they were worth every penny. Really puts the power to the pavement. http://www.americanmuscle.com/2005-p...ling-arms.html

If you do them yourself, plan on about 4 hours. After the first set, you can fly through em in about an hour to 90 mins.
