When you say lower, you presumably mean numerically lower, so in ratio terms higher? The ratios fitted in Ruby axles were 8:42 (5.25:1) or 8:41 (5.125:1) in the later cars. You could fit a 9:44 (4.9:1) from a 1931 car, with a bit of jiggery pokery. But many people find that the 4.9 gearing is a bit tall for everyday top gear driving in anything other than a light special.
