Long shot but worth a try. Im running 4:10 gears and getting prety tired of them i want 3:73 gears though if i find a local Mach with 373s wanting 410s we can do an even trade take both cars to a shop and just pay labor and fluid etc. let me know if interested or text me 909-717-5463

Bummer, I only have an extra set of 3:55s. (factory gears)

If I may ask, Whats bad about the 410 gear. I was going to make the change myself. Just wanted your input.

Yep. I've got a set too.

3.73s ftw! Love mine. Hated the 4.10s. No top end at all with them.

if you do it this way you have to worry about the brake rotors and brackets being different as well. and to change the bracket you have to pull the axles.

Nothing is "bad" about them, it's all on what you want out of your car. Some prefer stock 3.55s while others prefer 4.56s. Different strokes for different folks!

Exactly!! I love my 4.30's! Top speed is still 121mph@7000rpm.
I'm even thinking of 4.10's... Maybe I can hit 130

130mph is all I need in the 1/8th mile.

I'm running 3.73's with a 2 speed powerglide right now with no OD and it really isn't bad at all. 3k rpms at 70mph. lol
