4.0 youll still get the same top end and it would go faster but aerodynamics are what stop you, and honestly why do you need to have your top end anyways. its unsafe t go that fast on any public road. but still gow itht he 4.10 youll be happy

dude please do a search this question has been asked a thousand times, go to the 99-04 section and there is a sticky for ya. There should be no questions about gears on here cause i think every single question has been asked already

Not to go off topic, but if we have people search out various technical questions, and I am sure the majority of which have been asked, wouldn't the forum then see a massive decline in activity if everyone just searched for what was already here? IMO the place would become a massive database, and stop being a forum.
Not being combative here, I'm just sayin'. lol

Various technical questions? I see prolly over 15-20 thread a week on 3.73s or 4:10's. It really gets old. And if you let them know, all they say well one more can't hurt.

well being a member on here that likes helping people out with the right information and not make 2000 posts in less than 3 weeks lol,i am tired of typing the same damn thing over and over cause people can't use a search function. I am on alot of other mustang forums and i know before i ask a question i do a search, why cause it saves time also instead of my typing out the question and shit. I doubt this forum will see a lack of threads if people search cause there seems to be at least 10 new members on here everyday that no absolutely nothing about mustangs or anything automotive and they are just full of interesting questions lol.

well i guess we need to put a "knowledge test" in order to join the forum so we can cut down on the amount of idiots that join. i mean we get some really stupid people on here that don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.
i mean damn people if you're gonna join a forum thats in english,learn to read english especially the part that says SEARCH

I would suggest finding one of the gearing calculators, and inputing your tire size, final drive ratio, and your normal, daily highway cruising speed. Crank out the numbers for yourself, and if the rpms are too high for you with 4.10s, go with the 3.73s.

No one can tell you what's best for you and your driving.
