3.73's for $50?
 

once again, I post up my deal of the week.

As always, this is not my item and I'm not responsible for anything with this transaction. I just find what looks like smoking deals and post them up.

as always do your research on sellers and on any part to see if it'll work with your car.

used gears? thats like used underwear

I've never did used gears, but I'd "assume" that since they are OEM they were set up properly. I'd be curious as to how many miles are on them though.

What car came OEM with 3.73's??? I think the only mustang that i know of that came with 3.73's is the new GT500KR. They might be OEM parts, but not original from the factory out of the car. They are probably used FRPP gears...and i will never do used gears.

it said from an exploder

Gotcha, didnt really see that. I wouldnt put those gears in a stang. An explorer might have been used really rough to tow stuff and put a lot of stress on the gears. Not that that would do much. but i just wouldnt do that...and would never buy used gears. I know a guy with a couple sets of 3.73's and 4.10's used and i wouldnt buy them for $50. If anyone wants a set though for that price, i'll hook you up. Just let me know.

Exploder used to tow things? Give me a break :icon_doh: If people will buy used gears from a Mustang, whats makes you think Explorer gears are used and abused more? And from what the seller's description says, its very common. OEM gears replaced that dont whine usually wont whine is set up correctly in the next car.

:icon_shrug:

I tried used Explorer 3.73s once. I found out that used gears almost always whine. There just isn't any way to re-install them and match up the previous wear pattern. The shop that installed them had an excellent warranty and replaced them for new FRPP gears and charged me nothing extra for labor. They told me that sometimes the gear whine is minimal and sometimes it isn't. There isn't anyway of telling until they are intstalled.

Note: There is no gear whine at all with my new FRPP gears. They aren't that expensive so I recommend that you get new gears.

Yea man, i just picked up brand new FRPP 4.10's for $130. Not expensive at all.
