Improve ET's and low end torque. Are you looking to get more low end grunt off the line and lower ET's at the same time? Then look no further than installing a set of steeper gears in your Pony. This Ford Racing Ring and Pinion Gears are perfect for street, road, or race use.

Complete Kit. This Ford Racing Gear and Installation Kit comes complete with all the components needed to swap out your ring and pinion gear. It includes Ring gear, Pinion gear, 1 bottle of Friction Modifier, 2 bottles of 75w90 Gear Oil, gaskets, seals, shims, bearings and all the required hardware.

Legendary Ford Racing Quality. When you're adding performance parts to your Pony, you can't go wrong by installing parts from the folks that know it best. Ford Racing's legendary quality ensures years of hassle-free use.

Recommended Upgrade. Changing the rear axle gear ratio will throw off the calibration of your Mustangs speedometer, but a Speedometer Gear, a Ford Racing Speedometer Recalibration Tool or a Bama SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner is a quick and easy way to fix this issue.

Application. This Ford Racing 4.10 Rear Gear and Installation Kit is designed for use with 8.8in solid rear axle equipped Mustangs, including the 1986-2009 GT, Bullitt, Mach 1, Shelby GT500 and 1994-1998 SVT Cobra. It will not fit the 1999-2004 IRS equipped Cobra Mustangs.

Technical Note. Installation costs will vary, but a good rule of thumb is between $250 and $300. Be sure to work with a reliable shop that you trust for installations. You can also save money on your installation labor by having your Trac-Lok rebuilt at the same time as your gears are installed, see drop down option above.

Should I get the Traction-LOK rebuild?? I have a 2007 mustang GT automatic with only 20k miles on it.. Do you think I need the traction-LOK rebuild kit.. PLEASE HELP I don't know what to do !!!!

Mustangdude

Yes go ahead and get it. It will upgrade it the cobra and gt500 specs. The carbon discs hold up way more. And since I'm sure you'll be getting nasty with those 4.10s I'd go ahead and upgrade. You'll have to reuse your clip spring though the kit comes with a cobra spring. But yes go ahead and spend a little extra!

hubaduba12
Unless you are going to take it to the track and do a bunch of hard launches you won't need it. If you had higher mileage I would recommend a replace or upgrade.

Markmcd
Since you are putting some taller gears in it sounds like you are doing some drag strip duty with your car. You are going to have the diff torn down to change the gears it would make sense to freshen up the traction loc as well.

Real quick question, ordering these gears for my 97 cobra. Which gear tooth exactly will I need to fix my speedometer?? 97 cobra stock t45

Venom

For your 97 Cobra with 4.10's you would either need a 23t speedo gear, or you would need a 6 tooth drive gear used in conjunction with a 20t speedo gear. We do not offer and recommend against the 23t speedo gear, as they have a tendency to wear prematurely not seen in the lower tooth count gears.

will i have to update my tune through bama whenever i install these new gears? i have a bama tune and am wondering if i will have to email them requesting a tune upon installation.

Zack06gt

Yes - for those with 1999+ V8 Mustangs, you will want to let our Bama team know that you have upgraded your gear ratio. They can add that to your tune information, which will correct your speedometer reading. Hope this helps!

LisaS
Yes. The gears will affect your speedometer and shift points for transmission. If you have tuner that you can update your mods you can also do it that way. But it's really easy to call or email Bama for a custom tune.

Do i really need the rebuilding loc kit? I have a 2001 ford Mustang gt convertible 5 speed with 97k miles I want to purchase the 4.10 install kit

JamesB

The Ford Performance LOK kit is not required to do when swapping how gears, however, it would not be a bad idea to have everything changed to new when you are in and doing the gears.

can i use this oil ? car specifies 75-140

bigman07

Use the oil that comes in the kit.

88GTConvertible
You can. The 75w-140 flows the same as 75w-90 The 90 is a thinner viscosity than the 140. Both are fine to use. I use the 140 vs the 90. Really just a preference. Ford used to call for the 90. Then changed do to the 140 being a tad better at resisting breakdown.

Hi, I have a 1996 Bronco and was wondering if one of these kits would fit the 8.8 in the truck? Was planning on installing a Detroit Trutrack locker and 4.10 gears. Thanks! WA

The gears, gasket, bolts, oil and shims in the Ford Performance 4.10 Gears and Install Kit will work with any 8.8" rear, however the bearings may not work as these can vary in some Ford applications.

Wow like a different car! Much more power in all gears, fifth is actually a usable gear now. And the car still has good top speed. Had my garage install these along with new axel seals. My mechanic said the kit was complete and fitment perfect.

What a change in my manual!!

Had the car for 5 years and started looking into gears about a year ago or so. Can't believe how much different it feels. 1st gear is still usuable, I just shift higher than I use to and I can run through 3rd and into 4th without hitting speeds I don't want to. I have rarely ever taken the revs above 5k and rarely above 4k in the past, now I hit above 4k daily and love it. No gear whine so far so shop did a great job. Gas mileage looks to have dropped about 2mpg but I shift higher than before and have been getting on it more so it may have only been 1mpg if I drove the exact same...which I won't do now.

410 gears

Best thing I've done to my car!! I waited a month to see if the 373 kit would be back in stock and got impatient so I got the 410s. Man am I glad I did. My car is 10× more fun to drive. I cannot wait to drive my car everyday. I drive on the highway for 3 hours a day and its not bad. I'm around 2400 at 70 and it sounds good. Do not hesitate to get the 410s!!! You will love it and will not regret it. Thanks AM!!!

No regrets

First gear is a waste, but the the Oomph you get in 2nd, 3rd and 4th is well worth it. By far the best upgrade I've done to my car (I'm also running the Bama Racing tune).

Best Bang for the Buck ... Period!

I used this kit to swap my 3.27's to 4.10's and did the work myself. The only part I needed a shop for for pressing on and off the pinion and carrier bearings (I'm not a tech by any standards). I had heard that if you use the factory shims (in the same orientation) that pinion depth, backlash and pattern would probably be good; and they were perfect! All-told it took me a bit longer than listed because I pulled the whole axle, did the axle bearings, painted everything; etc. In my opinion; the best mod for the money! This turned my trotting Vortech 2V pony into a bucking ... well ... Mustang. Thanks again AM, wow ... just wow!

Zero to fun like a 'stang should.

Used these to replace a set of 3.55 in an '93 LX getting set up for auto-cross. Had everything needed. Use RTV instead of the gasket. Bears are great, lube is top notch.

Perfect performance and semi daily gears

For the longest time I was debating between 4.10s and 3.73s. I wanted to extra kick 4.10s would give but was worried it would effect drivability of the car around town - I'm not really a daily and not really a weekend warrior - somewhere in between. I was thoroughly impressed by these gears. You're pretty much always in the power band and the car is far more fun to drive than before. It goes without saying you will sit at some higher RPMs at highway speeds, but it hasn't totally killed my mileage as I've slipped from roughly 17 MPG to 15.7 MPG. A difference, sure, but not as bad as it could be. If you're on the fence about what gears to get, trust me and go 4.10 - you've won't be sorry.

Best bang for buck

By far the best bang for your buck, had a buddy put them in for me for around 200$. Made my 97 cobra a lot more fun to drive and not such a dog with the stock 3:27's. Honestly makes daily driving better (for me atleast) getting in the power band quicker. Thanks AM!

**** Serious Fun ****

I really labored over 3.73 or 4.10 and everything I was reading seemed like quite a few people that picked the 3.73 wished they had gone with the 4.10. Granted, you lose top end but I'm rarely in that neighborhood and the low end is way too much fun. The other thing I was worried about was noise in the cabin on the freeway at speed, pppfffttt... no worries, even with the windows down. That being said I still have stock exhaust ;), soon to change. I found a shop for the install and they struggled with it but after bringing it back to get it right they did a great job. All in all, 0 regret
