Limited Slip Differential

scubasteve041186 · September 25th, 2006, 01:21 AM

so why 3.73 gears on a manual turp? why not 4.10 ?

itschristorres8 · September 25th, 2006, 01:22 AM

u can get 4.10, but first gear is gunna be 2 seconds

scubasteve041186 · September 25th, 2006, 01:28 AM

haha so this is fact? or just an estimate?

itschristorres8 · September 25th, 2006, 01:31 AM

not a fact lol im sayin 1st gear is almost pointless. shit i might get 4.10s
but idk cuz they waste a lil more gas...

flattusmaximus78 · September 25th, 2006, 06:05 AM

Thanks 99mustang for that link!

AtlanticBlue99 · September 25th, 2006, 06:46 AM

4.10s, 1st gear will be much shorter than 2 seconds. you rev up and accelerate through the powerband much quicker than with a lower ratio. if i were to time it from a dig, 4.10s would be more like 1.25 seconds

and of course they hurt mpg. you are in the powerband at highway speeds.

itschristorres8 · September 25th, 2006, 12:47 PM

damm =/ thats gay...im going with 3.73
powerband at 60? and 70? even in 5th gear?
why

AtlanticBlue99 · September 25th, 2006, 03:18 PM

depends on what you want with the car. i would have gone 4.30s if they were available for the 7.5

flattusmaximus78 · September 25th, 2006, 07:02 PM

So I guess I'd get this and I'll be set? I suppose it comes with the gears as pictured but you just pick the ratio?

no, that link is for the 8.8 rear, you have a 7.5. but yes, that is the correct seller

flattusmaximus78 · September 25th, 2006, 09:01 PM

Ok final run down of everything for the new rear end! Just tell me if I'm right.

The eaton posi package from drive train specialist.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...temZ8045061820

Does it come with both the posi and 4:10s thats what I need to know.

Now for the 8.8 girdle is this what I need if so is it cheaper anywere else or is this a good deal?

Hey alantic thanks for being patient lol, I'm sure Im getting on your nerves with all these questions by now. But thanks to anyone who is helping and allready helped answer my questions.

also my dad say's somethign about needing a bearing rebuild kit or something of that nature? do ?

and last but not least my dad has an sct tuner with two open spaces would his work for mine?

itschristorres8 · September 25th, 2006, 10:19 PM

why whould u get that?! with that your paying 300 for t-loc and 300 for gears...thats alot

AtlanticBlue99 · September 25th, 2006, 11:24 PM

No, no. Those are also links for 8.8" products. Here is what you should do. Email Drivetrain Specialists about your car specs: 1999 Ford Mustang V6 with a 7.5" rear, and you want a "Ford Racing Performance Parts Trac Lok differential for the 7.5" rear, a FRPP 4.10:1 Ring and Pinion gear set for the 7.5" rear, and the accommodating installation kit at a package price." Don't be afraid to negotiate either.

When you have the t lok, gears, and instal kit package settled, then contact Jason@VMPTuning for the XCal2 for 379.99

flattusmaximus78 · September 26th, 2006, 06:07 AM

will do then.

if you plan on getting a ASP UD pulley jason also offers the XCAL 2 with the pulley for $508

flattusmaximus78 · September 26th, 2006, 09:01 PM

Well I just found this site... I was wondering if someone can vouch on there behalf.

http://www.v6mustangstuff.com/drivetrain2.htm

anyways it say's the 4:10's are for the 7.5 girdle and so is the lsd. Is this true. The girdle wont break open?

itschristorres8 · September 26th, 2006, 09:11 PM

i hope soo, cuz ive finally found a t-loc that'll fit my car now

Twist 2 Go · September 26th, 2006, 09:13 PM

if you get the frpp ring and pinion, it's a waste of money to buy the install kit as most all of the parts are sent w/ the r&p

huh? hes just askin bout gears and t-loc

flattusmaximus78 · September 26th, 2006, 10:00 PM

Yeah, I never planned on an install kit, Just flat out the lsd, gears and girdle. I wanted to know tho if the 4:10's on this site supposedly for the 7.5 will hold without breaking my stock 7.5. If that set up works Im just ganna get the lsd, 4:10s and keep my stock 7.5 so I can use the rest of the money on a tuner.

http://www.v6mustangstuff.com/drivetrain2.htm

But if I had those three things would a local shop be able to install it no problems asked?
