I believe that Xtreme is trying to get a G.P. going, six buyers of Getrag 3.73s @ 1695/ea.

We have had a winter gear swap special going on for $1,150 we will rebuild your carrier with any ratio you want. :seeya :seeya
Hey Chris how long will you be running the $1150 special. I have been thinking about changing my 02 6spd vert to 3.73's. What can I expect if I do change as far as highway driving, gas mileage, driveability etc. If I can convince Drew to go with the rear change you have been talking about(on his viper) can we get a quantity break? :D

Whats the advantage of installing a completely new differential w/ 3.73's or 3.90's as opposed to just buying a new ring/pinion set?

Where can I order a new differential (pumpkin) online - I want to shop around and see what is offered. Not interested in a core - dont want to have her off the road due to down time.

Thanks.

Will
