I have FFRP 4.10's sitting in my room. I have a line on a Speedcal from a friend, and I'm waiting on my next paycheck to order the install kit....master bearing kit....T-lok rebuild kit....and looooob. Oh, and a squirt of friction modifier.

I'll keep everyone posted. I wonder if my stock clutch will finally go out.....hmmmmmm.

I have 42k on the stock clutch. 3k on the clutch with the 4.10's. I don't have any problems now, knock on wood. I don't beat on the car bad, but I always do speed shifts. I would get the gears anyway!!!

Actually, I drive like an ass. I just don't do clutch dumps, powershifts or riding it out.

I don't know as I would classify clutch dumps and powershifting as abuse . . .

I just don't see what gear ratios have to do with clutch longevity. Gears might help destroy a rear end when used with slicks, but not the clutch. Get the gears!
