8.8 Ford ratio selections

7423 · 05-26-2014, 10:10 AM

Looking for something steeper than a 5.14. I can only find a 5.71. Anyone know of anything available in the 5.40 zone??

Afraid not, Charlie. I looked into this myself a while back. I sure wish that somebody would make Pro gears for a 8.8. I have already broke two 5.14 gear sets in my Mustang. The 4.88s seem to hold up much better, but not really ideal ratio. unless one was to use short tires.
