Either he's f-ing stupid or he's fencing them...and buying stolen property is a felony in the states if I'm not mistaken...but still...BUY THEM but demand a reciept

And if it's legit..and you don't mind overseas shipping...I'll buy them from you for $120

I'd go for it. I got a really great deal on my 4.10s with install kit locally off cl. It was a deal I thought I was sure couldn't be true and I was sure to be getting ripped off on. But sometimes people just need money and have no use for them so they see it as making some fast cash. That is how the guy was I got my stuff from. And the gears were brand new as well as the install kit for 100 bucks.

I have loved every second of them! I didn't believe my fiancé when he said it gets up and goes now but when I got in the car when he picked me up after they were installed. It really gets up and goes!! Night and day difference!

And I don't know how much of a difference a 3.73 is to a 4.10 but when I had a gear thread, everyone told me to not fear the gear. Do it right the first time. Go with a 4.10 because you won't regret it and believe me I don't!

If you're not racing what real advantage do you get with 4.10s? Especially if your car is manual. I know the cons like worse gas mileage, constantly changing gears (1>2 before you've even crossed the intersection) but if you're just driving to Macy's, home, then work, home, etc. WTF?? why waste time and money with 4.10s? If you're auto tranny I'd understand a bit more, but barely.

Just a question, semi-wrapped in my own opinion.

Well if you would have read my first sentence of my second comment right above yours. It says I really don't know how much of a difference from 3.73 to 4.10 there is.. But everyone says they regret not going 4.10. That is just my personal opinion. He asked what I thought so I told him. It hasn't affected my gas mileage that much, my speedometer was off around 10 mph, and I love them. That's just my 2 cents...

They can correct your speedometer when they tune for the ProCharger. 3.73 are 14% lower than stock 3.27s. 4.10s are 25% lower than the stock 3.27s. Have you run them on the 1/8th yet? Top speed in third is around 82-83 mph. With your ProCharger and a good set of sticky tires you should be running 87-90 mph in the 1/8th so you will probably have to shift to fourth before you reach the finish line. With 3.73s you would just be around 6000 rpms in third crossing the line.
