I have a broken 3.73 gearset (stock). When I fix it I think it will be replaced with a 4.10. I loved that 3.73 though.

Re: what gears do you have?

what gears do you have?
Currently a 3.08 12 Bolt

do you like them?
Well with 1.47-1.49 60fts and mis 10 second performance I cant complain but I'm changing them to go with a taller tire for more traction

if you could change them to any ratio, what would it be?
Going to 3.42 this weekend

4.10 Auburn

They're perfect for my cammed small-block,my car is setup for racing, w/ all the performance mods they really handle the load!

uhh...well, I really love staying in the low gear range, but if I were to swap I'd go w/ 3.73's, hands down.DUECE

curiosity.... athough i forgot to ask what trans people were running too..


the reason i was thinking of them, was that i swapped a 4.11 posi rear in my camaro lastnight. i would have driven it to work today too, but the stupid napa guy gave me the wrong speed bleeders, and i didnt have a 2nd person to help me bleed the brakes....

other then bleeding the brakes, the rear is in.. and thats saying somthing since i bought the rear lastnight, got it home at 8:20 and finished it with her on the ground at 11:30.. bymyself...

coulda probly done it in half the time if i had air tools, but i got a nice workout.
