ToplessGT

Okay, here is my question. I have a 95 gt vert w/ the aode tranny. My question is not whether to get the 3.73's or 4.10s, but rather, what kind and where. I see there are different manufactures. I hear Richmond gears are bad (whining). A lot of people say Ford racing is the way to go. But from the sites i have been at it says for 8.8 rear ends only. What does a factory 95 gt vert have for a standard rearend? Also, according to mustangtuning or mustangtuner .com , they say they recomend the motive over the ford gears. Any reasons for this?? I guess, my questions are: where to get the gears? What size rear end does my stang have? Any preferences of manufacturer? Thanks for any help.....

Richmond & Motive's won't whine if the backlash is set properly.

With the Ford's, you are just buying the Ford name.

You have the 8.8

WHAT ABOUT BUYING USED? I'M CHEAP SO IF I CAN SAVE A LITTLE I'LL HAVE MONEY FOR OTHER MODS. IS THERE WAYS TO DETERMINE IF A USED SET OF GEARS IS OKAY OR NOT? IF THERE IS PLEASE EXPLAIN. THANKS.

find out if the used gears have abnormal wear, cracks or chips.

congrats, ur lucky!

as for the used gears, i honestly wouldnt risk it....the rear end is such a complicated thing to take apart and rebuild
only to find out the gears are junk and you need to rebuild it again
