I have them fitted to my Patrol and they do make quite a difference.
I would question them on an 80 series because they already have low gearing and from our experience their gearbox can be weak.
The Patrols have a 2:1 transfer box ratio and I fitted ones which gave my car 2.88 : 1
I never needed it on my manual patrol but with my auto patrol they have issues of lack of engine braking and control.
The gears were quite an improvementand the car can still get to 80 in low.
The only downside is that they are straight cut gears and make a slight noise but not to bad.
