i have been under the impression that ring and pinion gears are pretty indestructable, but i now face a situation where i can get a used set of 3.73's for free. they are Ford Racing 3.73's taken out of a 650+ HP hatchback. the guy who offered them to me said i could have them for free, then we just talked a little bit and agreed for him to install (parts and install kit for $300.) I was wondering if i should have second thoughts about receiving this set of gears with the high HP... it wouldnt be worth it for me to pay for teh install and have something let go on me so maybe it IS too good to be true. BTW, the guy who is giving me the gears owns his own speed shop and is very knowledgeable. thanks for the opinions, Kyle P.S., if anyone has recommendations for an aftermarket trac-loc differential, throw them out there for me to read... i was thinking eaton over auburn gear?
