With all of the gear swaps that are done out there, there has to be a lot of 2.73 ring and pinions sitting in boxes avaliable for probably next to nothing - tried looking in the parts for sale section?

thats what i was thinking i looked at the parts section quickly but didnt see anything. if anyone has 2.73's just hanging around i'd pay for them to get shipped to me. also ford dosent sell 2.73's the highest gear they sell is 3.08

FMS doesn't sell 2.73s. Ford on the other hand, still sells the factory replacements.

Jeff-
I have my stock 2.73's that were in my GT all boxed and ready to go. They are in mint condition with only 45,000 original miles on them. I will sell them to you for $20. Just give me a call, or stop by one day. Chris
I never though i'd see a thread titled "where can i find some 2.73 gears"....lol I'd say junkyards are your best bet, but you can definately get'em from Ford, you'll just pay WAY more than 2.73s are worth.

LOL you guys really want to get rid of these gears huh? I guess this is a free post now because I called 90lxcoupe today (he is a friend of mine), and told him he could have my mint condition boxed 2.73's for $20 . NO SHIPPING. He lives 10 minutes away LOLOLOL

Does anyone have any 5.13 gears? My GREAT grandfather wants to put some in his VW-powered trike for 1/8th mile runs.....
I was pretty certain you'd find some gears - there must be thousands of sets out there just growing old.

I thought most trikes had the 7.5 rear. Might want to verify. Other than that, if you cant find a set of 2.73's, then you dont know what a fox body looks like. Lol!

Ah c'mon guys. You actually want MONEY for your 2.73 gears? If I had some sitting around they would be yours for free.
