Yes, the 96 gear box is geared lower (about 10% lower if I remember right)
I have a 96 gear box in one of my Sonetts and hear in the mountains it s great. The shift mechanisim from your Sonett will work on the 96 gear box. It is the ring and pinion gears that are different ratios than the Sonett gear box and they (ring and pinion) are no longer avilable and thinner gears (more teeth/less material). I would take the 96 gear box and change the oil (fill it so no moisture forms) and put it in a dry spot for some future day that you may need it.
