That's the only option at the moment I believe. Or a Ford dealership.

would it be safe to drive after gear change with an auto for a little while?

Dealer can't do it, only the Whipple flare tool. Car won't run until you correct it also. What gears do you want to change to? Your current 3.15's are already a great all around gear and a gear change won't do diddly.

Your output shaft speed and wheel speed sensors will have a conflict . Buying the flare tool is cheaper and less troublesome to me than dealing with a tow truck and dealership . You can always resale your "used on time" tool when you are finished .

It's not locked to your vehicle?

Yes, I was told they charge one hour of labor for this.

Can't sell it.

Because of this ^. Locked to your VIN.
