I have a buddy with 2.73's in his 1996 camaro. I will swapping out my 3.23's shortly for some 3.73's and he was interested in my old 3.23's.

Ive done some reading up and I was under the impression you could not swap 3.23's into a rear that has 2.73's but Im reading that it is do-able.

Anyone able to chime in and say forsure what the deal is?

Going from 2.73s to 3.23s is like pissing in the wind. It isn't that big of a difference and he'll barely notice it. He is better off finding a good used set of 3.42s and buying a ring gear spacer from Speed Inc

Go 3.42's or 3.73's

I do have 3.73's. Someone wants my old 3.23's in their vehicle that currently has 2.73's and I am willing to give them to them for free.

Im wanting to know if it is do-able being he has 2.73's now.

im goin from 2.73 to 3.42 this weekend, like said before go with 3.42 or 3.73s. the only reason im goin to 3.42s is b.c i want to have decent gas mileage and a good all round gear.

it depends on what carrier he has. I think some cars with 2.73's came with 2 series and some came with 3. he would need a 3 series to run your 3.23's.

He would need a ring gear spacer to run your gears. Ive never heard of a 2.73 3 series carrier from gm they are all 2 series.

No your gears(3.23s) will not fit in friends car because he has a 2 series carrier, he would be better off buying thick gears from Strange and an install kit. He should do 3.73s from 2.73s. Good luck
