    I ran stock shaft and 4.10s for 4 or so years, and only switched to a new shaft because I bought a cvpi shaft on ebay for $70 in October of last year.
    So it certainly isn't a rule that 4.10s + stock shaft = damage.

    Have four years and 45k on my 4.10's & stock driveshaft. No problems.

    That's a really good price IMO. Did you know the tranny was bad when you bought it?

    If I recall correctly, he was able to hit 12 because he was using NOS. He didn't mention it until later on, not sure he realized it was considered a power adder like forced induction.

    If he "paid" for it, why are you buying another tranny for it?

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    Sounds awesome, I wish my gal would buy a Marauder but she is leaning towards a Hemi Challenger or SS Camaro. I don't know how rare your car is with that combo, it depends on how you break them down. My '03 was one of 70 (or 71, can't remember) if you go by how many did not have the 6-CD changer in the trunk. That's strictly off the assembly line, I do not think any Marauders rolled off the line with a sunroof, so if yours did it is 1 of 1
