98 3.8L Auto gears and tlok

NDGreen07 · August 2nd, 2006, 03:13 AM

My daily driver is a 98 V6 auto, and i've been looking into performance options and i've come to gears. If i changed the gears i would go with the 4.10's and tlok, but i was wondering if i could just get a tlok differential and save money but still get off the line without roasting a tire. im on a very limited budget and a fan of DIY work, so does this sound good or am i just confused

ur better off just getting gears also. why open it and put 1/2 the goodies in, do both right away

NDGreen07 · August 2nd, 2006, 04:44 AM

alright thanks, so its a go for it all or dont bother kinda thing

Yeah, for a $200 labor job, why half-ass it? Gears cost an extra $150, so save up a little more and treat yourself to a good time.

So minus the install how much will you spend on the gears.

AtlanticBlue99 · August 2nd, 2006, 12:51 PM

400 for gears, t lok, and instal kit
400 for sct xcal 2
200 for instal
I think I had mine all done for about 900-1000 dollars.

i didnt wanna start another thread on this since there already is alot but i have found a site for gears...now im going with the 4.10s and a tlok but i have two options

1. Motive
2. Ford Racing

now heres the thing im thinking about going motive because there 100 greens cheaper and im tight on money...though the tlok of both brands is the same amount of money my question is are motive good?

If you can't get or beat these prices, you don't belong in the business world.

WeCircleTheProblem · August 4th, 2006, 07:06 PM

those are good prices but 250 for just gears isnt

Twist 2 Go · August 4th, 2006, 10:09 PM

you need to shop around. that place is ripping people. the suggested list price from Ford for those gears is only $184.00
