I just installed their 4.11 in the lightning series. Funny that they are selling them as 4.09 in the FRPP, most likely cause that gear is factory option in the as built data

Manual transmission cars have a Super8.8 axle while auto trans do not.
Just pointing out - all S550 models have the Super 8.8, not just the manual transmission cars. The linked article says as much. The difference between the A/T & M/T is carrier construction (aluminum vs iron), not basic axle design. The new gear ratios fit any of them directly, except assemblies with the 3.15 ratio. Those require a diff swap to accommodate the gear change.

Big thank you for this important clarification! I can't seem to find a set of these 4.09 gears...any ideas? ( looked at FRPP and US Gear- not listed).
