What diffs are in there now??

I think that the diesel Lux has 4.5s standard, and the petrol Lux has 4.3.

Going by that you have 4.88's in there and want 4.5's...


You are honestly not going to notice a big difference between the two..

Just better for 4wd'n with 4.8's as you go slower but highway speeds RPM are only slightly higher... at 100km/h only around 5km/h differenceor like 300 rpm

up to you
