I have a manual and want to put in gears and a t-loc, i started a post earlier, but i want to know what every ones opinion is regarding 3.73s vs 4.10s. I have read earlier threads and theres seems to be conflicting opinions. I know their is a trade off between the 2....lower RPMs less gas consumption with the 3.73s vs better launch but decreased gas mileage and higher rpms with the 4.10s. My car is a daily driver, and i log in a lot of highway miles on the weekends. I started off thinking the 3.73s would be better in the long run( better fuel economy,less wear on the engine), but maybe they are a little too conservative, should i just go for the 4.10s?

I'm very happy with my 3.73's. Others really dig their 4.10's. For me, the decision came down to high rpm's and reduced mileage... the 3.73's hit the sweet spot.... and, boy! Are they fun!

Is there a preference for a certain ratio depending on whether u have a manual or auto? i have a manual

generally people say 3.73 for stick and 4.1 for auto...but it is really a just a personal thing it seems. that is actually why i was asking lol


gears are not really something that you can throw on, and if you dont like, pull them off and try another one....well you could i guess, but it is not really worth it when the labor for the installation is so much
