I am not so sure about alans gear works any more. I had them put a set of 3.73s in a 2000 z with auto, lid, and hypertech. That rear only lasted about a year and a half before it broke. Now my rear just broke. Mabey its just coincidence, but thats two cars that I have been involved with that they did the gear work on.

On the 7.5 rear end the rear is weak to begin with. Going to higher ratios only makes them weaker.

I can't blame a shop's work for them breaking. Bad installs IMO cause whining. But I have seen the BEST installs ever break a week later on a 10 bolt. Just not meant for the power.

Thats why I am going to go fairly easy on the car until I can get a 12 bolt put in. Which will be a while.
