....and what a difference. By far the best mod yet. My suggestion is this should be the FIRST mod for everyone. I mashed the gas in second and my son asked me how I did that....put him back into the seat. Me likes big time.
Although I still have to figure out my vibration I did take my car for a spin today. It's been sitting at home while I work. First gear is hardly there anymore but it is enough to get you rolling pretty good. Second is a beast. I thought my car was slow but no more. And I can chirp 3rd when before I could barely chirp 2nd. Next thing I have to do is exhaust. Still stock even though I ordered a Prochamber it was damaged in shipping so I exchaged for gears. I'm still learning my shifts and will be making a track run just to try it out.

If youre planning on staying N/A, go with the 4.10's. You wont be sorry you did. Most guys on here love them. Im thinking about going with those sweet and rare 4.30s in my auto.
Guess I should have been more clear. I had a vibration before I had the gears installed. I had a bad carrier bearing with noise coming from the rear and thought the vibration was a symptom of the bearing. I had a complete rear end overhaul when I had the gears put in. Got rid of the noisy rear end but the vibration was still there. Turns out I have a bad 'spider' on the driveshaft causing the vibration. I have an aluminum shaft on the way to replace the old one and will be good to go when it gets here.Fallguy said:What does the vibration come from ?

which control arms did you go with?Ryan L said:To tell you the truth, the only mods I really "felt" were 4.10s and lower control arms. The LCAs are good to do with 4.10s because it helps plant the rear when shifting hard.
I hear you. I think I need to do that soon. I'm boiling second and barked third without trying.Ryan L said:To tell you the truth, the only mods I really "felt" were 4.10s and lower control arms. The LCAs are good to do with 4.10s because it helps plant the rear when shifting hard.

on street tires 2nd is wasted, 3rd spins, 4th chirps. I have thought about putting the stock springs back in it. 1st I will install uca and lca with shocks and see what happens.

with 4.10 gears is 1st gear pretty much a waste of time on the street?? Do most of yall just start out in second since the windup is so quick?? Also any noticeable decrease in mpg? thanks

When I had the 4.10s in my old 5.0 it was alright for launchiung but sucked ass at highway speeds. Where I travel alot. I would only suggest 4.10s for a street, non highway car. If you are traveling on the highway and do high speed anyhting, go with a lesser gear. My .02.
Glad you liked them.

I've had my 4.10's in for about a week and a half now. Good news is The car is brutal. A definite improvement. The bad news is I have to put a clutch in it. Was at the track the other night and smoked it.....
I am going with a SPEC clutch. Made here in Bama
BTW before smokin' the clutch I managed to pull off a 1.98 60 ft on STREET TIRES baby!!!
