Gears

[Infamous05]

Ok I picked up my first minor/major mod tonight. I thought I was getting a set of 4.10 gears but actually recieved a set of 3.73's I am looking for opinions before I pay to have the installed. Should i sell these and order a set of 4.10's or go ahead and slap them in. The car is an 05gt all stock except a frpp CAI and custom tune coming in the next week (waiting on tuner from AM) This is gonna be a daily driver with fun on the weekends so help me out guys.

What gears do you have now? I have 4.10s and love them. I'll find out how I like them with a Roush TVS.

+1 on what gears do you have now? If you have a manual then you have 3.55 in which case I would return the 3.73s and get the 4.10s. 4.10s are great for a daily driver. I have 4.10s and drive over 65 miles per. day.

If i had ordered 4.10's thats what I would expect to recieve, also I have have 4.10's and reccomend them whole heartedly !

Just send them back and go with 4.10's.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Send them back for 4.10s

not necessarily, wasnt the 3.55 an option on the manual cars. I think all came standard with the 3.31, but the 3.55 was optional.

and yes, if you ordered 4.10s, send them back and get your 4.10s

i have 4.10's and i think its too much for a daily driven street car. busy shifting. car had 3.55's. im switching to 3.73's. gas mileage took a good hit too.

You should trade up with the OP then !

 

[Infamous05]

Yes you should trade I didn't order a friend of
mine in the mustang club here in Knox swapped me for a set of pedals for a t5 and I thought he had said 4:10 but I guess he meant he was getting 4:10s

My gas mileage went up with the 4.10's thinking about 4.30's with this 6060

 

[Mr. Bill]

Adam, just remember that I had 4.10 in my old 05. Just think back to what it felt like when you test drove it.

 

[SOHC46]

I would go with the 4.10's.

i can see your mileage going up....if u just switched from 4.56's. and 4.30 are overkill for a close ratio transmission like the 6060.

 

[Infamous05]

It felt like someone had kicked the car in the ass is what it felt like. Lol I liked it but is that effecient for a dd? Cause if it is then I will sell the 3.73s and buy a set of 4.10s

Do you have Manual or Automatic. If you have Auto then 4.10's. If you have manual go with 3.73's. IMO 3.73's are better not as much highway drone and if you go supercharger in the future you would want 3.73's.

3.55 were standard on the 05-06 maunal. It wasn't until 07 were 3.31 were standard on the manual and 3.55 was optional.

I am going to guess you do a lot of city/town driving. I find 4.10s perfect on the hwy.
