if you had stock gears before, it will be a night and day difference.

I went with the Ford Racing gears as well... They are a little more $ but I guess better quality than the motive gears.

i went with the same setup,


DONT PUNCH IT TILL AFTER 200 MILES, give em time to break in and then play little by little. If you dont do that, they will be noisy .

On your next oil change, change the rear end flud, once broken it, then your set. Honestly, id let the shop do all of it.

yeah, i realized it was an auto right after i said the thing about the stick. don't worry though it will be worth it. like the other guy said, give them time to harden and break in properly. also, when i got mine done my trac lok wasn't working so well so i went and had that re-built also at the same time.
