theres more exhaust coming out of the passenger side. there is a big difference too... if you put your hand by the passenger side it is hot, put your hand by the drivers side and its alomst cold.. could a mufler be pluged. let me know if thats normal

no way does he have STOCK 3.73's

from what i remember, the foxes were offered with 2.73, 3.08 and 3.27... but i think the 3.08 was semi-rare
