Hey 4.6 boy check out Dwayne "Big Daddy" in Lakewood nj before you spend your money I hear hes the man or Kevin at Wicked in Jersey City. Got to be careful with gears dude they will sound right but if installed wrong you will not get a very long life out of em what are you changing to 4:10 ? or 3.73?

basically i plan on haveing the hole rearend rebuild useing 373s a 03 cobra traloc and moser axles, and having all the bearings/ seals replaced and toping it off with a summit cover. i pretty much got everything just need the bearings and seals

Sounds like beef hope it works out for you give Dwayne a call before you spend your money even if he won;t do it he will steer you in the right direction. Check out his web site "Big Daddy performance" lakewood new jersey its about 35 minutes from staten island.

Mustang Magic installed my 3:75 gears and changed my gear ratio on the computer. I drive an auto.

Joe admitted to me he is the most expensive dealer in the state, ($90 bucks an hour for labor, and other $100 just to change the computer settings) when i was talking to him about another perfomance shop i was thinking about going too in Connecticut.

I was in and out in about 1.5 hours. I think I walked away about 500 bucks poorer. which i though was acceptable price.

All in all Joe is a really cool guy, he let us walk around the shop and we got to talk to the guys while they where working on the car. I dont know if they guys like people watching over there backs but they where pretty cool with me. I found the whole thing pretty fascinating.

On a side note, before the shop opened I parked my car in Joe's spot. he made me move my car before he opened his shop. dont park next to the gate!

Mustang Magic is good. So is Dez Racing in Seekonk MA. Mike Dez is much cheaper.
