So I read ErikB's Page on how to figure out what gears you have w/out removing the diff. "Spin the tire exactly TWO full revolutions while at the same time count exactly how many revolutions the driveshaft spins. If it spins just over 4 times, then the ratio is probably 4.10; 4-1/3 = 4.30; 4-1/2 = 4.56"
Well I marked the rim and drive shaft flange @ the rear diff and did the test 6 times. Every time I did the test, the drive line turned a little over 4 1/2 times when the tire turned exactly 2 times!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'm soo happy! I was going to re-gear to 4.56 for my 35's that are going on soon (I didn't want 4.88) But it looks like I don't need to!
I bought the truck w/ 33" tires and always thought it had GREAT power and torque for turning 33's! Well it turns out the previous owner re-geared and didn't tell me.
So now I have a set of Toyota oem 4.56 IFS 7.5ö gears I need to sell. (I hadn't bought the rear gears yet, so just the front for sale) I will also put them up on the For Sale thread. $50+Shipping
I also want to say; Thank you ErikB!! You have a LOT of helpful info, youÆre a smart man.
