i always thought u were supposed to break them in so you don't get an uneven wear pattern on them and fill your rear with metal shavings.. :-/

on another note.. there was a guy in my area selling his mach last year before i got this car and i was looking at it and he decided to switch in some 4.56 lol

were you able to keep traction?? i figured with a lower gear like anything greater than 4.10 that it would do more harm than good because it would get out of your power band quicker..

It all depends on the driver to keep the car under control at low speeds. __________________ 302rwhp 321tq

White99stang MM's nicest mod, :) Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: elkridge, MD Posts: 2,850	well tires size has something to do with it also, i run a 28 inch tall tire. That changes the gear ratio also. I have never broke mine in nor ever been told to take it easy on them after install. It never affected me any powerband wise. I have 4.10's now in the car and thats only cause i got them for 50 bucks and just didn't feel like spending another 150bucks on 4.30's at the moment. __________________ Have a Nice Day, Especially MSO 99 Mustang GT VT 302 Stroker 11.13@123 f.s. 9k 06 Dodge MegaCab Diesel 455rwhp/815rwtq
