Will I have to buy the set to install the gears or is there a way to get around having to buy it?

I'm not too sure on what to tell you, I'm new to the gears as you can tell by the rest of the post. Hopefully one of the others guys can give you an idea on what is going on.

Now you guys have me wondering about my gears. I was told they were3.73's butI bought my car from some young punk as$ wanna be poser. He had nos stickers, a fire extingusher mounted on passenger front window pillar, the 3 round lighted gaugethings on the drivers side pillar that were not hooked to anything but the power to make them glow. Hell I might need to check if its really a mustang!!!

I paid 3 grand for it several years back. I never took care of it too much, just played around and drove it like a dumbass...but thats why I bought it..it was my 3rd car just something to mess with, but when I got back from Iraq I had some decent money and I read lots of 5.0 mags and really got interested in it, so I put some money in it just to make it look decent to be seen in and now I am taking things apart here and there just to try and learn some things. I had a problem holding a charge and other things and by asking questions in here and reading posts and just plain experimenting I have fixed a few problems myself.... If you know me that is awesome because I am rough on equipment..I mean I can probablybreak an anvil with a feather. sorry if I rambled or misspelled, I drank a bunch of crown watching that garbage called the superbowl.
