i want to wait but im not much of a patient person, hopefully i can get up another 2k to dump in the bird once i get my chevy beretta sold. I would like 3.73s in the rear but i know some one selling a rear diff with 4.10s from a wreckedbird that would bolt right on... I'llkeep an eye outbut this 2.73 in my reardiff is just great for slow take offs and im thinking a bigger gear back there would probably help my gas mileage as well since i do alot of stop and go driving in the city.

oh yeah i was considering these prices from ebay and people I know around here, im hoping most of the mustang parts will fit, mustangs are plentiful around here, not too many modded birds though.

ORIGINAL: decipha

by no means arethey in danger the backseat of a bird is much bigger than that of a stang... if i felt they were in danger i wouldn't allow them to ride with me, its not very often just occasionally, perhaps they miss the bus and i have to ride them to school. Its not an everyday thing and I would never harm any of them.

bttt... what do you guys recommend??

are the above mentioned mods worthwile?
This reminds me of the guy that came into my shop several years ago. I told him that his tires were worn through to the cords and needed to be replaced. When he found out that a new set of tires was going to cost $400 he said "No thanks. My wife just uses it to takethe kids to school and daycare".

In Washington you'd probably go to jail if you were caught hauling seven un-seat belted children around in a T-bird. Personally, I think you should be beaten by your brother or sister for hauling their kids around like that. But that's just me.

+1 despite the fact that I remember being 4 and riding with my father in his brand new Pontiac Fiero, sharing the passenger seat and seatbelt with my sister.
