Oh God yeah
Mine is a 200 TDi and my brothers (the grey one) is a 4.2 V8. With the diesel the gearing was so out with the 35" tyres that i was having to slip the clutch to get the power band right for the turbo . 2nd low was useless and 1st was still too high. This mean't i was going though clutches every 1500 to 2000 miles.
The tyres take the gearing up by about 28% , fitting the 4.75 ring and pinions take it back down by 30%. So this means it is alot better to drive on the road and off road. You can climb most things in 3rd .
My brother has done th same bacause his is an Auto and it was changing gear all the time for the same reason . But since he has put them in his truck goes like a rocket and behaves like a dream. Will still get to 120 mph (195kph)on the road

Cost . Well they caot about £250 ($600) a Diff. But are rated up to 550 BHP

Got them direct from Kam
