Richmond 4.10's
Richmond install kit w/ bearing
(3) Royal Purple 75W-90 synthetic max gear

Driving for a day w/ out speed caliberated should be amusing, poor odometer

Congrat....

Don't feel bad, I drive my car for 3 weeks without the speed-cal. If I remember right when it shows 70 your doing 55.

Your car is gonna feel like a whole new beast, enjoy

Congrats! I went with Richmond gears also.

Don't forget to break the gears in properly. The Richmond gears are not heat treated. Unless your install shop bakes them for you, you will need to go through a break in period. My tuner suggested 100 miles in 10-15 mile increments, stopping for at least 1/2 an hour between drives. They are also a bit noisy in my opinion. You will have at least some gear whine while you drive. Mine is between 30 & 50 mph.

Anyway, the gears have been the most noticable mod I have done. You will find it hard to keep your foot off the gas pedal for a while! It is addictive.

Enjoy
