Has Anyone Changed Out their Rear End?
Hi All,
Just curious if anyone has replaced their Rear End Gears in their Magnum. I believe the Stock Gears are 292... Let me know your feedback and thoughts of changing this. I know Freeway / Top Speed and Gas Milage are issues, but not really issues at all for me... How would a higher gear ratio improve the 1/4 mile times? That is what I am after! 355, 373 or 391? I would like a Top Speed of about 90 mph or so... But really would like to shave a full 2 to 3 seconds off the current 1/4 mile times. Day dreaming, right?

RE: Has Anyone Changed Out their Rear End?
right now, there are no gear sets available to the magnum. without programming changes, the car would go into limp mode with a gear set swap. once a gear set becomes available, superchips said they will offer the needed programming. i will change to a 3.55 gear set as soon as they come out.
a 2 to 3 second gain would be incredible and probably break a lot of part in your quest.
