I am changing the gears in my 2000 Mustang GT from stock 3.27's to 3.73's and I was wondering what the best brand to get would be...or if it matters?

$140 for gear installation????? Is that with the rearend already out of the car and stripped to the axles or something? That's ridiculously cheap. Oh and Andy, I can get you the best deal on NEW Ford gears through my work. Remember, we can get you gears at our cost. Peace.
