Can anyone please confirm the year range of the rear 3rd that comes with 4.88?

-92'-95' 4runner v6 auto with 31" tires?

-There's a VIN/gear code for that gear ratio identification right?

-Pinion nut has a pink mark?


Found my info from: Erik's Toyota Differential Info

The FACTORY 4.88 V6 diff is unique!
- Axle code G144, white pinion paint code,
- generally came in 92-95 trucks/4runners with V6, auto tranny, 31" tires, and tow package.
- Housing offsets pinion towards ring gear, allowing ring gear to be thinner
- OEM Toyota gears are the ONLY gears that fit this diff due to the thinner ring gear. All other gear sets have thicker ring gears and do not fit.
- The carrier (case) is the same as the V6 diffs, so normal V6 lockers, LSD's, etc. will work in this diff
