I'm swapping my 4.10's for the 2.73's. I have a job that requires me driving 50 miles down the interstate 5 days out of the week now & 4.10's dont quite go to well with that. I'm doing the swap myself this time, so any tips are appreciated.

Probe isn't firing... It's not the ignition module this time either, something i'm going to have to do a bit of work to figure out when i get time... & keeping the gears to put back in later, when i have another daily driver

Both my stangs have 2.73s, I'll trade you one of them, the whole rearend, I just want some 3.55 to 4.10s, been waiting for a rush. I want to put it on my GT w/ AOD, I can already light my tires up easily with my Notch w/ T5, but wouldn't be unhappy with 3.55 since I already got the right speedo gear in there.

50% of this is wanting to do the swap for the experience. Like someone told me. experience is what you get when you don't get what you want. Doing that would just be giving me what I want.

I'd rather have a car that looks good with decent milage than a car that looks ugly with good milage
