    what diff gears should i get

    hi i got a disco 300tdi 5 speed manual
    im wanting to run 33" tires and just wanting to know what sort of gears should i put in the diffs to help keep the gearing like how they are when there stock
    i havent got the tires yet but saving up bying bit and pieces
    also i want to do diff gears as i'll be pulling apart the diffs anyways to put some good old lockers in them.

    I have a 300TDi Disco fitted with ARB Lockers and Maxi-Drive axles and flanges which I consider necessary to survive with 33's, my Diff ratios are 4.11 ratio, with the taller 33's my speedo is fairly close to being accurate.
    Also maybe a brake upgrade, try better quality pads for a start, Regards Frank
