The NV4500 is definitely more stout. This article says that 1st gear is VERY low. It would be too low for my 3.73 rear and I would never use it except for "pulling stumps" (which means never). I'd need to start in 2nd gear which is 3.04. The article doesn't mention if they have a cable speedo connection or VSS.

**Edit** After more online reading, it appears the NV4500 1st gear is mostly used as a granny gear. So essentially, the NV4500 would feel more like a 3 speed with OD. They come in 4WD and 2WD versions.
