OK, so next month i plan on getting ffrp 3.73 gears, so far looks like from American Muscle. Now with the gears it looks like there are some options, i planned on getting the bearings with em, but in the dropdown menu, i guess i have an option of "motive bearing kit for 74.99 or the motive installation kit for 35.99. There is also an option for the Ford rebuild kit for 124.99

Curious what i should get with the gears.
Thanks for the help!

+1 the full kit is your best bet. Also, FWIW skip the 3.73's and get 4.10's. I had 3.73's installed a couple of years ago, and wish I would have got 4.10's. The RPM's are not that much higher on the hwy with the 4.10's.

If I could go back and do it over I would have bought 4.10's. Take my advice, do it right the first time and get 4.10's. You'll be glad you did, I guarantee it.

Everyone i've been talking to has said not to go above 3.73, because all the time i spend on the highway and in traffic. (my car is a daily driver and i spend roughly half its life in traffic).


Thanks for the info guys
