+1 on FRPP 3.73 gears, bang for buck seat of the pants fun times !!!!

driveshaft is a nice upgrade and helps more with ET @ the track, for everyday driving the gears are alot more fun !!!

on the topic of the gears... i see a lot of recommendations for 3.73 for autos and 4.10s for manual on a lot of threads.. anybody know why that is? I haven't heard... and then some people go with the 3.90 or 4.10s on the autos anyway.. just curious..

People suggest 3.73 for autos becuase they have a "shorter" over drive, where as a manual has a taller overdrive. I'm not sure I'm explaning it right. You usually want to stick with the FRPP made gears. All others can be hard to install and not get the dreaded gear whine.

3.73 if u do a lot of highway driving

4.10s if you do mostly around town

You will notice the difference thatgears make more sothan the driveshaft. I'd dogears first. After that consider the driveshaft -you WILLnotice a difference.I went with FRPP 4.10's and a Coast DS. It cost me~$650 parts and labor for the gears, the drive shaft alone was ~$600. I installed that myself.
