Others here will know better, but I think you are going to be in trouble here. The Montero/Raiders came with 4.626 back then. Other gears from later years are possible as are 5.29s if you can locate them. But nothing lower that I've seen. But the lowest used on the later years were something like 4.22. Don't know if they will fit the GenI...
