I've been thinking about getting 4:10 gears, will it be hard to hook up off the line with them? Should I just go for the 3:73, or is the 4:10 a lot better?

 

I've got an automatic 98 v6... what gears came stock with it and what should i get to have the best acceleration. it's basically a daily commuter but i love to fly past people.

 

i just recently bought 3.73 gears for my 95 GT. the person i bought it from said the install was easy except torquing the yoke. i want to do this myself but i need help from pros out here. how are the crucial steps/precautions i should take when undergoing this task? how long will it take? or should i just get professional to do it?

thanks

 

It's do-able but you need some specialized tools, including a press, dial micrometer, inch pound torque wrench, and a monster torque wrench (for the yoke part you mentioned). I would recommend a shop do it; it runs around $200.

 

Ok guys I have a big question for you all,

I just had 3.73s installed in my 01 GT. The car is running great except that the rear end is making a high pitched sound in certain RPM band widths. I called the shop that installed it and they said that this is normal, and that it will quiet down a little more miles I drive. Something to do with the parts fusing and setting in, and they had to shim to make the gears fit correctly.. The shop that did it is very good at what they do, but I am not sure if it should make this noise or not. What do you guys think?

 

Can you guys tell me what a 98 GT % speed came with ?
I hear a sort of groan from the back of the car .I fear my differential is gone

thanks

 

would a gear change from a 2.73 to a 3.27 or 3.55 be a good first mod for a 98 v6....im gonna end up gettin CAI, new headers, intake,chip,etc but all in good time....just wanted maybe a basic order for moddin my 6 without messin somethin up

 

my 98 had 2.73 when i looked.....all u gotta do is look under the rear on that pumpkin lookin thing, lol, and theres a metal tag that should say what gear ratio u have

 

How difficult is it to switch out the gears?

 

Could someone tell me the stock gears in a '97 Cobra?
