I've got a set of factory Ford 3.55's from a 03 Mach 1 with 50-60k miles on them. In perfect shape. I'll see if I can actually put my hands on them when I get home.

My brother has a set of 3.73 that were in his car for like 30 miles and made a ton of noise due to them being set up incorrectly... If you want them im sure he wouldn't mind giving them away if you wanted them.

The turbo car is 3.73. My blue car has 4.10a or bigger right now and it turns too many rpms driving around and want to make it a little better on gas

Yea I'm thinking about going to a 3.55 or 3.73 in my car. That glide 1st gear and 3.27's are lazy out the hole.

If you'd just put a 26 inch tire on it you'd be fine.....go get the 3.55s and put them in....they are in the garage, somewhere...lol

Have you seen 26's on a SN car. It looks like shit. I picked up some 3.55's this weekend and ive got those 3.73's on the shelf. Plan on getting a PTC converter soon and im going to talk to them about which to use.

but you also dont have a glide right? with the small first gear in the glide it makes it pretty hard to get heavy thing moving
