It will lower your mpg on the highway but might increase your mpg on the streets. That's assuming you don't drive the car hard from light to light, which with 4.10's is very hard not to do

as long as it's for a 7.5" ford rear end, it should fit.

it'll say if you buy it online for instance. if u go to AM's gear section, u'll see some gears say for a v8 (8.8" rear) or a v6 (7.5" rear), other then that, not too sure, i think u can measure the size of the ring, but not positive.
