If you're looking for "the best deal" you will most likely end up buying Motive gears, either sold as Motive gears or disguised as Ford Racing gears but still made by Motive. Make sure the part number of the gears you buy end with an "A" and not with an "M". It happened to me, and I actually bought them from a Ford dealership. Good thing my shop could tell the difference and got me the authentic ones. Look to spend about $240 for the authentic gears.

Check out 50resto.com

I emailed them about their gears and they sent me a reply that they are true FRPP gears made by Ford Racing and not Motive.

I doubt those are the authentic FR gears, if they were, Mustang shops all over the country would be buying them from that company and selling them to their customers. They don't even have the complete part number, they're missing the letter at the end (either M or A). I'm not saying not to buy them from that company, you might get lucky and get a good set of gears that won't give you any noise problems. Just don't want BushBanger to spend around $400 to install them, then have to spend another $400-$500 to get the real ones installed. I already had to spend about that by going with Motive 3.90 gears at first. This should give you a pretty good idea of what the gears actually cost. Motive and Ford Racing:

I was told Motive made the gears for Ford? What's the difference between the Motive 4.10's and the FFRP 4.10's if they are both heavy duty and made for our rear ends are they cut differently so are louder?

Why should we spend so much more for the FFRP ones?

look on ebay. Got my FRPP gear kit for $175 shipped (new in the box). Otherwise, Jegs was the cheapest retailer that I found on the net, around $195 for the gears only. Only get the FRPP gears. True motive does make gears for ford but only in 4:30 and above ratios. The 4:10's are not motive gears and you do want the G410A series. Mine were installed in under 3 hours, no wine the first time!

i must say i ordered gears from 50resto and they arrived in a ford motorsports box so why would they not be genuine frpp when they say they are??
