I have a 92 F150 4x4 5.0 V8 with the M5R2 and with 4.09 front and 4.10LS rear and the 3.91 first gear in the M5R2 sure seems like a granny--with these rear axles.And it will pull in overdrive at 15 MPH. And still gets 20MPG + at 60 MPH!

my m5od setup
for what its worth, I have an 89 F250 (3/4 ton obviously) with the m5od, but I also have the 4.10 rear end and the 302 engine. it seems to be able to take anything that i throw at it, like mild towing and hauling up to full capacity.
but this weekend, i think i may have to have the thing rebuilt. bad sounds, squeals, and a clutch that wont do its job. i would love any insight that others may have in this regard. driving at 75mph, hear an evil squealing sound, pull over, and my clutch wont return to its upright position. i finally got the clutch to work by stomping on it for a few minutes (really!). but now i have a rattling squealing in every gear except fourth. any ideas?
