Are they worth the $2K+? Should I, or shouldn't I? I live way up in the northeast, so I must have local mechanic or myself install them. Any input will greatly be appreciated.

Your 0-60mph times will be in the very low 5's. the gears are worth 8/10's of a second.

are you saying that you don't recommend them for highway driving? Say having them in for a trip from Cleveland to Woodward? I am getting ready to make this purchase but it's not something that I would want to be putting in and taking out. I want to install them and forget it.

Sorry for copying the other comment, but I have the same question! I plan on driving from Maine back to Michigan for the Woodward Cruise this summer. Am I to assume that I shouldn't use these gears for long highway trips?

I thought about them and I would drive from Indy to Detroit and not think a thing of it but to go to Deadwood, SD, I would pull them and reinstall stock. It is about a 3 hour job if I remember correctly. That would be the 1st time, every time you do it would get easier.

No additional discounts will be offered. If you will stop to think for a minute. This price is already about a $600.00 or more discount from any other gears on the market.

If you are looking for a "dealer" discount, maybe you should contact Dean at ProwlerPro to see what he has to offer.

WWWWWWWOOOOOOWWWWWWWW

I know im not the poorest prowler owner but i am the youngest driving one and i do like to save money. For this amount i might very well charge it on the card and get them. I knew if i waited long enough someone would come out with something cheaper ;-) And these come with the speedo adjustment unit also?? Wow.

Now what is the exact gear ratio of the prowler pro gears??

And what will be the gear ratio of these gears??

I basically want the gears for my drag racing and burn outs. I run a 14.49ET and id like to bring that down to like a 14.2 or 14.1 Would any of these gears do that for me?? I know its like .3 but some gears bring cars down a lot and some dont. What do you guys think??

Going cross county I personally wouldn't be want to be in a rush. I know all these diesel don't think about the difference in wear on there motors deciding between 4.11 or 3.54 gears.

Have fun, they are easy to take out when you have done it once.

The gears in my car have slowed me down now, I cruise the speed limit which is a very good thing for me.

Too bad someone doesn't have some loaner gears, I bet a lot more would be sold.

Have a good one.
