They'll last 100's of thousands of miles if installed properly and you're not running 800HP with 30" slicks at the track every night.

I would say that it had more to do with the installer than the gears themselves. I'll get them back after the 3:55's are put back in and see what they look like.

I went with a $75 per hour local guy rather than $100 per hour expert and now I will be paying to have them done again. Lesson to be learned; get the best installer, bite the bullet and spend the extra money.

That goes with just about everything.

I too am interested in your gas mileage with the 4.10's...

Have any idea what MPG was running at highway speeds?
