What Next?

MustangMatt96GT · December 9th, 2006, 01:23 PM

So I have recently bought a 96 GT 5 speed. Right now the mods are CAI, Pullies, no cat h-pipe, 40 series flowmasters, headers and a hurst short throw. I am looking for a daily driver that can run at the track occasionally. I am only 15 and I don't have much money. So i was wondering what you would suggest for the next mods possibly that my parents could afford for Chrismas. I would hope to Kenne Bell it in the future, but it has 120K on it.

4.10's

MustangMatt96GT · December 9th, 2006, 02:15 PM

Rear Gear sets cost alot to install anywhere from 500-1000 and i really don't want to have to take my axels out and ruin my rear end because i don't know how to install the gears...and i just got a new pinion seal put in.

niubodybuilder05 · December 9th, 2006, 02:40 PM

gear install was quoted 200-225 where i am????????

FastBack71 · December 9th, 2006, 03:26 PM

dude gears around my house are 430 INSTALLED DONE by a professional...

FastBack71 · December 9th, 2006, 03:27 PM

look up 4.10's urself u will see

MustangMatt96GT · December 9th, 2006, 06:22 PM

Yeah here in denver i got several quotes to get them installed and all they quotes were at least 500 bucks not including parts which includes the gears and the new bearings which is another 250-300 bucks. If anybody knows where i can get them installed for a lot less in denver that would be great. I almost put in 3.73s, but i didnt have enough money, because of the price of the install, and like i said before, i dont want to have to take out the axels and take off all the calipers and do all that is nessisary to install the new gears.

MustangMatt96GT · December 9th, 2006, 07:36 PM

ooo Yeah i need new shocks and tires what do you suggust? I want to keep my stock wheels, It has been dropped 1.5 inches, does that matter when i buy shocks?

Gtwrestler · January 1st, 2007, 03:12 AM

Dude it may be a pain but gears are deffinatly badass. i just put some 3.73s in my 03 gt and the diff is amazing! im mainly stock atm with cai flows and now gears but they will deffinatly put you back in your seat a well worth expence. Ended up costing me 426 with eveyrthing to have my ring and pinion installed but i think it was worth it

MustangMatt96GT · January 1st, 2007, 12:40 PM

Yeah i really want to put some in but i can find anywhere to put them in cheap. I could probably do it, but putting in gears has to be perfect so i dont want to take any chances. The cheapest i have found some one do them is 450 plus then i have to buy all the pinion and ring gear and the install kit which makes the price jump up to near 700 bucks! If anybody knows where i can get some installed for cheaper here in the Denver area i would apprecate it. P.S. Once the summer starts i will get something like that installed if not sooner, but being 15 without a job it is tough to that much money.

HMUSN · January 1st, 2007, 01:19 PM

i don't know where you can get them installed cheap but i DO know where you can get the ring and pinion for $75.00 :wink

MustangMatt96GT · January 1st, 2007, 01:35 PM

Yeah even that would help if you could let me know where you can get the pinion and ring gear for that price. Thanks

MustangMatt96GT · January 1st, 2007, 10:37 PM

Hey man let me talk to my parents i need to buy some shocks struts tires, and a new battery but i might have enough money left over. Do you know how much the shipping might cost to Denver? Thanks and are they 3.73 brand new?

HMUSN · January 2nd, 2007, 09:49 AM

they are used 3:73's but they are in very good shape.
they have never seen the tract or had a lard launch.
and they only have about 7k on them.

$15.00 to ship btw.

HMUSN · January 2nd, 2007, 09:51 AM

i'll even throw in some poly urethane bump stops for your new struts

niubodybuilder05 · January 2nd, 2007, 12:12 PM

MustangMatt96GT · January 2nd, 2007, 05:30 PM
