Help (Rear End)

OK I really want to get gears and a trak lok but it costs $300 to have them installed around here. I found an 2003 Mustang GT 8.8" axel, with Ford Racing 4.10 gears, Mosar Axels. and Drilled/Slotted rotors for $500 plus shipping which is a killer deal. Only thing is im afraid 4.10s are going to be too much for my V6 to handle, espically because its a manual. What do you guys think I should do?

That means I'll have to pay the $300 for the new install plus the money for gears...
