Rearend Gears...

I would like to maybe move up to higher reared gears, and all I want to know is what you guys would reccomend. I have heard that the 3spd. 77 to 79 Thunderbirds really respond well to a set of 3.73s. I am unsure of the current gears, but I assume they are 2.75s, or some other highway gear. Thanks for your reccomendations!

Jim

P.S. If you know how to use a scanner to upload pics onto a computer, PLEASE tell me anything you can! I really want to put up the pics of my 79 TL! Thanks.

Jim,
Talk to Gearworks up at the 77-79 forum about your gears. He knows more about 9" axles than i could ever imagine.
