MC1of80 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I do not. But which 10 bolt do you have? 8.2 or 8.5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I have 3.73's and an Auburn gear locker in my 10 bolt, yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris shipley Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 How do you like your 373 and auburn gears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 the car is quite responsive, and I like the feel on the throttle. That being said I think I would have been happier with the 355 gears for the gas mileage. I drive mine on the interstate frequently and the lower rpm's would have been more to my taste than the launch from a stop light. So depending on what you want from your car you may or may not like the 373's and locker. OBTW I went with the Auburn because it was the only unit that wasnt on backorder at the time. But it has been solid and quiet since installation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott S. Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 If you're driving highway a lot, you might want to consider an overdrive transmission..... Internal or external, opinions vary. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I just pulled out my 3.73 gears from my 71 SS 12-bolt rear and installed 3.07. The 3.73s were fun around town but I do a fair amount of highway driving and wasn't much fun at high RPM. I'm happier now. If I lived in the city and didn't do much highway driving then I would have likely kept the 3.73s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I guess I should have mentioned that I changed to the 373 gears when I installed my overdrive trans so the highway mileage isn't terrible, but it isn't where I want to be either, especially nowadays.

McCall72 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I have a 200r4 and 3:31 with a 12 bolt rear end. RPMs are at about 2k at 70 mph. Good highway cruising setup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
