4.10's or 3.73's

[Willis_98GT]

i dont know. i'm not going to be drive'n my car to much on the road for a long time. the most i'm going to do is weekends. My stang is more for the race track. thats why i'm going more for 4.10's, but i still dont know

motive 3.90's

I love mine

I have a dd 96 mustang GT w/ 4.10's and they are awesome! i love them!

If this car is going to just be a weekend driver then there should be no question. Why go with 3.90 when 4.10 is that close? i average between 18-20mpg with mine. Crusing speed on the highway (70-75) is about 2800 to 3000 rpm. Most of the guys i have talked to wit 3.73 wish they would have gotten the 4.10's.

DONT FEAR THE GEAR!!!!

i will never put anything less 4.10's in my car may even go 4.30's

 

[grthayer]

dont mean to jack the post. i drive mine every day. highway and freeway. which would be better for my app?

 

[US Soldier(stang 98)]

for a dd i would go 3.73 man, but talking to every one on here i'm going with 4.10's cause mine is for the weekends nice days and the drag strip. so 3.73's but from what sounds like your going to wish you had gone with 4.10's. good luck with yuor stang

Subframes first, then the safety loop. I think you have to run 10 something for it to be required. I never slung a D/S out of my car. But if it makes you feel better, I'll never knock someone for adding a safety feature.

 

[US Soldier(stang 98)]

thats some good info man. subframes are on the list of parts.

 

[US Soldier(stang 98)]

hey J.R. it sounds like you know a thing or two about a trans. what gear do i need for my speedo? and do you how far off it will be with my 17/35-315's and with my 4.10's. thanks for the info man.

 

[voidfinger]

deff. get the 4.10's and don't look back. J.R. knows his shit so listen to him. +1 on the subframes and you will feel the difference. I got them on my vert. and it made a world of difference and it really stiffened it up. You will deff. love the 4.10's next on your list needs to be some WIDE M/T ET Streets good hook with some clutch dropping and 4.10's shoooooo lol

 

[US Soldier(stang 98)]

haha lol

You need a 23 tooth gear, it's white, and I carry them. You could also do a speedcal, which is more accurate, but I do not carry them. You can find it at Dallas Mustang.

 

[US Soldier(stang 98)]

thanks for the info man. and what would a four point cage do for body stiffness?

 

[Jrgunn5150]

It would help a great deal, but subframes first.
