I plan on getting some 3.73's. Do I need to order anything else besides the gears? should the rear end be reinforced?

i would order the installation kit that includes, bearings and shims, and everything else necessary. i would also get a girdle such as the ford racing one. if you really want a bullerproof rear get a posi with 31 spline axles. you can also get the tubes welded for extra strength.

Call them and ask them if they provide all the bearings and such. They should in my opinion for what they charge you...
