Default The day has come!!!

Finally get to drop off my car for my 4.10 gear install. Been waiting for a 4 weeks and the day has finally come.

Only thing is I have to wait the break in period of 300 to 400 miles, change the diff oil, and then I will be good to go.

Who knows, I may just fill up the tank and take off driving until my tank goes empty and the 300 to 400 miles is done. Hahaha.

I will let you know how the outcome is. Now I just have to wait until 9am in the morning like a little kid waiting for Christmas morning.

I'm jealous!



I JUST sent a PM to LSCHLEM about his 4.10s on his 07. He will give us a writeup soon. I have to say I have thought about 4.10s for a very long time a I am confident that will be my next mod. I hesitate at this point to get into cam and heads. But I'm sure the 4.10s on a daily driver will be awesome. I will ask you for details in a PM at some point. Let us know what you think.

The 4.10's are installed. I can tell a difference in the RPMs on the highway and in the city. 75mph on the hwy was 1,600 rpms. Now it is about 2,000 rpms. In the city I am usually a gear higher now. If I was in the 3rd, now I am in 4th. My cars acts and feels much better and smoother with the 4.10's.

Can't tell the what it actually feels like WOT until I get done with my break in period. I have about another 100 miles to go, change the oil, and then I should be good to go.

I will post up again after the break in period.
