strongest 7.5 LSD?

I'm not the best at this, if you buy Ford gears and not aftermarket I can most likely get them to work.  I always just used the same shims and spacers and always lucked out.

I know this is all wrong but it worked for me in the past.

Gears like these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3-73-gears-8-8-Ford-Mustang-GT-LX-F150_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33731QQihZ018QQitemZ280141279905QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW  Looks like this guy sells lots of gears.

There are also some on ebay for $59.95 but the guy has terrible feedback.

If the price stays there it will be fine.  Don't really need an install kit or new bearings.  Like I say I'm not a gear expert but we can try if you don't come back at me.

Oregon!  Why not just get the one in Lacey for $25 more?  I'm confused.

Just buy a whole rear, or spend the money to have it done right....I had 3.73 ford racing gears put in my old car and they still had to shim the carrier because it was off...you can get away with it sometimes...but nobody is lucky forever...
