I'm still lookin for a 4-runner and want to know what gearset it will have. You know people change up the tire size so I can't assume a runner w/ 31's will have 4.56 or 4.88; I want to be sure. Thanks, Luke I'm between toyotas right now... 3rd Gen 4-runner soon. Re: Vin# and Gears [Re: 92daily] #759383 10/19/06 06:38 PM Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 12,153 N. California.

The G=the diff size 8", the 25,14, or 08= the gear ratio, and the ? is for how many pinions, for a 3.0 it would be 4 and for a 22re it would be 2. If all else fails mark the flange and brake drum or gears(if not in the axle), spin the flange and count how many times it turns to turn the gears once. More than tread lightly.
