Ring and Pinion gear install: How to install rear end gears. Ford 8.8 inch and other 3.55 4.10 3.73 

Danny Johnson Thank you. I did 4.10 gears my self on my 03 GT Centennial because of your videos. Much appreciated.

Really appreciate the video. I’m planning to swap in some 4.10s on my Crown Vic. So straightforward and informative vids like this are great. Btw, I dig the Mach 1.

Wow, I had never heard of the shims for the caliper. I had my rear end rebuilt with 4.10s and a 31 spline setup. Babied the car for over 1000 miles before trying them out. A few months later I'm getting what sounds like metal on metal grinding from the rear. Definitely rotational and it sounds like it's at wheel speed. Doesn't show it's face till I get up to speed (around 30mph) but once it does, even when I creep to a stop I can hear the grinding, basically sounds like it's hitting at a specific point, not constantly. I'm thinking something in the rear is shot but I'd never heard of spacing the caliper brackets out. Might be worth checking out. Great video though man, thanks!!!!

Hands down the best video of its kind on the internet

Very informative video. I wish I was as mechanical as you. At least I know what all needs to be done when I need this done. Thank you.

This video helped thanks I am about to do this on my 1st gen lightning

Very thorough and informative.Thanks great video for the armature.

Danny vert informative, will definitely watch the detailed one. Thanks much 👍👍

Good video overall however things to note, You can re use the crush sleeve! despite popular opinion to not, take the old crush sleeve slide it onto a socket that fits the inside diameter. On a hard bench use a hammer and rotate the sleeve while tapping with a decent amount of force around the sleeve to slowly cause it to increase its width, THIS SAVES a lot of grief. Removal of carrier bearings is easy if you have the ability to remove the ring gear (make sure you mark location if re using, not completely necessary but a good practice) use some large cutting pliers to cut the bearing cage and remove the roller bearings. Use of a press and or air hammer + torch (wear eye protection) will remove the race off the carrier. Installing them is also simple the use of a seal driver with old race and a big hammer gets the job done (hit like a man).

great video. thank you for the passion

Thank you so much for everything

Great video bro alot of great info

Will the entire rear end from the Mach 1 directly mount to the Grand Marquis? If so what years...

Much bigger job than I thought.

I just saw the video and thank you very much very informative but I think I can't do that to my car by myself but this video gave me an idea of what needs to be done so any shop I'll choose cant give me wrong info or over charge me. Donation will be given.

Dumb question, if I weld the spider gears for posi (dirt track car) would I still be able to change the ring and pinion gears out?

Hey I need some help. My rear end feels really sloppy when going over imperfections on the road, it pulls left or right and I have to be precise with the steering. It’s a 2002 mustang gt, why does it do that. Also I have too much negative toe in the rear, my friend at the alignment shop said that the axle are bent. Please help if you can

Abs sensor was seized for me, had to destroy it after I took te bolt out

My 01 stang t45 with 130k original clutch has develped a bearing or whining noise only in 1st and 2d gear (between 3 and 10mph) my rear main seal is pretty bad, any ideas? my car runs perfect

How do you know which gear ratio is best without experimenting? My understanding is that traction could be an issue if you're using a supercharger.

Old video but very detailed. Looks like you got away with just using the stock shims in original locations. I’m seeing that a lot especially if you stick with Ford performance gear set.

Would 3.73 gears of a 2001 mustang fit a 1999 crown Victoria?

I haven't seen the video yet but you just read my mind. I was going to text you today to see if you could do a video just like this one. I want to take my 4:10 and pit the stock back on or 3:73 am not sure what to do.

Could I swap gears between a Crown Vic and IRS Cobra rear end? I know the rear ends are different but internally would the 8.8 ring and pinion be interchangeable?

Do you have to replace the pinion seal or can you use the old one when replacing gears ?

Could I just buy a rear-end that already has 4.10s and save myself this job?

Would you happen to be in southern Cali?

Hey Danny, just got 373 gears installed in mine; what break in process do you reccomend to break the gears in?

Hey Danny, I've been having a hard time finding some info, i need to rebuild my differential in my 03 cobra, but can't seem to find the kit i need, is there one you recommend or could link me?

Same thing on grand marquis ?
