will my stock rear end handle 3.73's what kind of gears should i get how hard are they to install what size should i get?

 

Yeah 3:73 is perfect for a automatic go for it - I have a 94 with a 6 speed and just got a 4:10 - one of the best mods I did to the car. The only think you might need is traction bars or should I say control arms - to prevent wheel hop. Wheel hop will break your stock 10 bolt. Control arms will prevent that. But yeah 373 is well worth the money.

 

about how much money how much difficutly

 

It's around the $450-600.00 range - that includes the parts and the labor. If you dont have any experince doing this dont try it. It takes a professional 7-8 hours to do. They have to make sure every thing is perfect. People put 4:10 in there automatic. That might be a little to much for freeway driving. 3:73 is a good gear. I have allot of buddies with 3:73 gears in there mustangs and camaros. But just let the professionals do the job. I paid $550.00. You figure the ring and pinion is around $200.00, bearings $100.00 and labor $250.00

 

Wow, what shop takes 7-8 hours? One that is bending you over. I changed mine with the rear still in the car in 2 hours, feel sorry for whoever did that to you. Unless you have the proper tools, I wouldn't recommend doing this yourself. But if your just replacing the carrier, thats a drop a go project.

 

no professional should take anywhere near 7 hours to change gears, it took me and my buddy about 1.5-2 hours and the gears in my camaro were perfect

 

Thats why every one breaks there rearend with a 373 or 410 gear they did not install it correct - go to the professionalls at the ring and pinion shop - Mike
