Rear End Gear Swap

[Sawman70]

Just curious to see if anyone has or knows of anyone who has swapped the rear end gears out to a shorter set up.

I am thinking this may make the car a little more fun on the street. Obviously not for the track but I would never track it. Considering a 2016 Tech pack.

Thank you

TALLER?! I think you mean shorter. Like going from a 3.73 to a 3.90 or a 4:10?

Yes, you are correct. I looks like it has 373's from the factory.

...or a 4.56.

Yes, you are correct. 3:73 is what I had in mind.

That's what they come with stock.

You have?

Sadly I researched after I posted. It has been corrected.

4:10 looks to be very much geared like a race car. Top speed in 5th is 160 MPH with 4:10's.

Personally, I'm good with 3.73's. I could do a 3.90 and be okay with it too but I'd rather not rip open my diff if I don't have to.

Pretty sure I saw a thread where someone had ordered new gears for the rear but they never posted the results

I think he got banned, re-subscribed as [MENTION=30094]Redline8250[/MENTION] and was banned again. Not sure why - seemed to have good technical info most of the time. He helped out with numerous engineering part numbers for the diff cooler stuff too.

Different [MENTION=19530]Voodooo[/MENTION]

Note the o's.

EDIT: Ha, he's banned as well. So both Voodoo and Voodooo are, but Redline8250 was Voodoo.

He was a little, shall we say, abrasive. It's too bad because he had some great knowledge but...yeah, anyway, moving on.
