The rear end on my 98 (v6) automatic gave out after a 100,000 miles. So I took it to a mechanic who changed the rear out with one from a later model V8 mustang he got from the junk yard. Through this forum I was told that I probably have the 3.73 gears and that it was a great upgrade. Well they did not have to tell me here what a difference it makes, I could feel the extra torque right away. As far as MPG goes I do not see any difference city or highway but I never watched my gas milage close enough to compare anyway.
