Yes, all the transmission functions work with the 4.44. It is hard for me to explain the difference other than saying it feel like it has more torque through the gears and the RPM is slightly higher in all the gears. It feels stronger overall.
The rear of the car has some new silver paint on it due to a recent dent and bumper repair. The picture actually captured a few blending spots around the rear wheel that you can't really see with your eye. I use mothers liquid Carnauba Wax or if I'm out of that, I always seem to have a tin of Turtle Wax on the shelf. (I keep getting that for Christmas for some reason)

Besides the lower gear ratio In normal driving, with a 4.44 transmission, 3000 rpm gives a true 75 mph.

With a 4.44 swap, there is 36% more torque in first, 31% more in second, and 25% more torque in third and fourth.

A stronger and beefier design overall.

I liked them because they are very open they show off the cross drilled disk and RED powder coated calipers . The 18" don't seem too bad, not as bad as I thought they would feel. I still have the repainted stock for the winter.
