4:10 Gears and 7.5 T Lock

What is needed for the install? Im hoping to have them in the next few weeks, but i need as much info as possible. Sorry if I seem dense but I have been having huge trouble finding a site offering helpful info on these gears. If i upgrade my v6 to these will I need to calibrate my computer for different shift points? If so where is the cheapest i can do so? I need help!

Are you planning on trying to install the gears yourself? I'd trust a shop to do it, if I was you.

I'm not completely sure but i'm pretty sure yes since its an automatic and you'd end up hitting the rev limiter alot quicker.

You can pick up a new tuner from most of our sponsor, or see if any one has one for sale.

the tuner will also recalibrate your speedo as well as shift points, and with it you can also change settings in your computer to get a bit more power.

for the stuff you need to install the gears and T-lok, you might want to look at buying a master install kit.

The tuner can run any where from 300.00 and up. depending if you buy used or new, or the model.
It is a great buy no matter what.
