Default Re: 4.10 gears...not what I expected.

I think it is all just a personal thing. I loved getting my 4:10s on my 93 early in its life with me. I felt it really improved my normal around town driving and cruising on the highway. Gears were also one of the first mods I did when I got my 95. To me the car feels quicker. Subjective I realize. I like the usefulness of sixth gear now. It does make the tires spin more but new tires recently helped a lot with that. WARP TEN ran a 12.4/116 at BG this week (admittedly with Marc H driving) and he wasn't power shifting. Overall I am happy with the mod; sorry you don't like them that much. Lots of folks are perfectly happy with stock gears but I am glad I switched. --Bob
