what I meant to say is I'm $650 in on Parts now and Ford Quoted another $1,400 for labor. Tomorrow I'm taking it to a mechanic how mods lots of Jeeps and Trucks so we will see what I work out with him but Ford is out of the question.

Got my gear change completed yesterday, PCM adjusted and picked her up today. 3.31 to 3.55. Now I can die a happy man, poor but happy. I can't really test her out out until the break in period is over but I notice a huge change. Steady power from the get go, shift points much, much better, instantly responsive now without having to pound the peddle. I only have 33.5" tires but between them and the new rims I may have added 18 to 20 lbs per wheel and I felt the drop off the minute they went on. I am glad to have the pep I had when she was stock. Now of course I'll think about a real tune for a few months.
