Roll Me Over
Since you are already over geared for the tires you now have, I would look into swaping in a 22re if regs allow it.

Can you get a turbo or supercharger for the 3ye engine?, this might be another way to go if you can't swap in a 22re.


More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else.

Actually, he's not overgeared. 4.88s and 30" tires are a factory item on many overseas Toyotas.

Check out this Aussie brochure spec page for the 1989 models: http://www.brian894x4.com/images/Hilux4x4P4.jpg

You'll see that with 22R trucks in Australia (didn't come with 22REs over there) they had factory 4.88s gears with basicly 29" tires. And his motor probably makes less power and certainly less torque than the 22R.

5.29s with 32" would be almost mandetory with that Y motor.
I don't think they had 22REs in Japan.

Its pretty much impossible to swap it and it still be street legal. which bites because I just found out that a 3.0 turbodiesel will bolt right up to the tranny and motor mounts and everything and yes the 4.88's are factory gears.
