I am hoping to get my gears next week, I probably will get 4.10's but am still skeptical beacause it is my daily driver to go to college in and (like most college students) don't have much gas money. Any recommendations, such as break in period? should I back down to 3.73s? Is $450 for all parts and labor a good price? Whatever I get, I am still very excited!!!!!

people don't like gear questions do they? sigh...............

i have my 4.10s as a dd i commute to community college every day except the weekend (fri-sun) there much fun. ive only lost about 2mpg. i paid about $290 for gears and bearing kit. then i paid $420 for install. so yes $450 for everything is pretty good.

breaking in bearings:
3 heat cycles - drive car easy for 20 minutes. let car sit for 20 minutes. repeat 2 more times. then let the good times roll

drive em and let them cool 3 times and you are ready to rock. There are 10,000,000 gear questions on here and they are all about the same. so people sometimes ignore them or wait for someone else to answer. 410s and mpg, maybe 1-2 worse. Just make sure to find someone who can correct your speedo.

Yeah the shop that will be installing them sells a speed cal for it for 100 bucks, does that price seem high?

rbstang
