2004 GT RagTop

I'm debating whether I should get 4.10s right now. I'm going to college next year, so just trying to save up money. That being said, I still would like to get gears b/c they seem so badass.

The gears themselves don't seem to cost much (found them for around $150), but the install is what is going to kill me I think. Can I get a rough estimate on avg cost for gears?

Also will I need to get my car tuned or will the install and the speedo recal be sufficient?

Ugh, I need more money []

a tune would be nice..... iwould suggest the diablosport predator.......but a spedo calbration would b fine

as far as gears....its would b about 400$ with install ...... i would suggest motive gears bc there good quality and cheaper then ford racing

thanks dood. Is that $400 include the speedo? I don't really mind the $40 or so diff between FRPP and motive, this is something I would rather not cut a corner on. But i'm not sure if i'll be able to shell out anymore than about $400 for the whole thing. I *have* the funds to do it, but the smart and wise thing is to save up for college, but who wants to be smart

I know exactly how you feel man. I'm going to college next year too and my mom has been nagging at me to save my money, but I've got MOD FEVER!!

The gear install cost me $220.00 and my gears (3.73's) less than $100.00 ebay. You might want to shop around with diff. mechanics and see who would do it cheaper than $400.00 Good luck on your new mods.

FRPP 3.73s cost me $160, install $250.
Come on ragtop, you're not a noob you should know all this gear stuff by now

lol yea I know, I was just hoping things changed since I last shopped around for gears...a few months back

JonBeast

Same old same old, "cheap to buy, not so cheap to install, def. do it but don't do it urself." *the usual discussion* Get those gears man, who needs an english book, screw that

ack, thanks for the not so great update lol.

Ugh, I want the gears so bad. Stupid college expense [:@]

We'll see I guess, i'll call around and see what they are charging now, if everything falls under $400, i'll strongly consider it.
