Default Dropped off coupe for gears/LSD

Well, I just got back from Evolution Performance, who is doing the install for my gears and LSD. I bought a set of Ford (not Motive) 3.73:1 gears from John Lund. He also rebuilt the t-lock (with an extra clutch pack) which is being done at the same time. While the car is there, I will be getting some add'l parts installed in the drivetrain (from PH, BMR, Evol). I'll post again after I pick up the car later this week. Needless to say, I'm very excited!

You will be very pleased with the gears and LSD.
I did the same gears and LSD on my 06 with 5 speed and I love it.
Hopefully you have a tuner so you can re-calibrate the speedometer.

Yup, my son & I installed a C&L CAI and tune over the weekend, and I am very pleased with the 93 tune. Running through the gears is alot more fun now, so the gears/LSD should only increase the fun-factor! With the tuner, it should be very easy to adjust the speedo.

Yes, Motive does make most of Ford's gears now, but the ones I bought were NewOldStock (NOS) that predate Motive's involvement in the 7.5" 3.73's.

Labor for gear install was $350.
