Quick Ratio Gearbox?

Does anyone know if they make a "quick ratio" gearbox for the 4x4 SD's? I have a friend who wants to get a Super Duty (he really doesn't have any use for one other than boosting his ego) but only wants to get one if he can make it handle like his thunder turd.

Just throwin this out there, I have no complaints about the way a truck drives... he has never driven a truck as a daily driver and complains he doenst like the way mine handles...

If there is one, anyone else see any problems with one once he lifts this new truck 12 inches and puts 44's on it?

I can't see a quicker ratio box working at all. SD's are already hard to turn at idle, now I would think that putting larger tires and a box like that would make it impossible to turn when parking.
