Finall swapped the rear! Reply #8 – May 24, 2006, 12:12:49 AM I went from 2.73s to 3.73s in mine and I could tell a BIG difference in how the car felt. My gas mileage went down about 3 mpg or so but that could be attributed to me jaming on the gas more because the car has much better pick up. Quote Selected
