The ant-ghetto sign is no joke. Degrade this forum with ghetto behavior and get the boot. Ghetto behavior such as street slang, no regard for education (spelling & grammar) and threatening others with violence has no place on CAFords.com. Please find another forum to demonstrate such behavior.

The "new" ford racing gear sets are made by someone else (Yukon) and they are either made overseas or in Mexico, the quality and the way they are machined is different then the originals....I think the ford OEM gears were made by Motive gear

M-4209-F373 old part number when Motive Gear was manufacturing them

M-4209-F373N New part number from the new manufacturer of FMS gears (Yukon)

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.

I've had them in cars before with no issues. Actually I have a set of Richmond 3:55s that will be going in my notch soon.

I ordered the Ford racing 3.73 and install kit from Hubbard just now. I don't think I have the patience to deal with the install so I'm gunna have Dan from san ramon install it.
