gear help

should be around 4:56 w/33"s ,the 4:88's are for towing and performance.

me personaly I like the pep of the 4:88's.

Shoot me a PM with an e-mail address.

I've got an Excel file already built for 'Yota's that'll help you.

I would personally leave the 31's and 4.10's alone. I wouldn't step up to the 4.88's until 33's.

A lot of power can be extracted from the 22re purely by doing some exhaust work.

For what it's worth
I have a 22re with 4.88's
it ran great on 36's. perfect for off road in my opinion

was little high for street driving but still ran ok
I have since moved to a taller tire

33's and 4.88's i think it would run like a raped ape
real well is what i mean

hell load your tires up and come over
we will bolt them on if you want

i lied about the rpms. Its about 2600 at 40mph in 3rd and 2800 at 70 in top gear. I am running 31 with 4.10s but thinking of throwing a old man emu 2.5 lift on it and putting 33's and i know where a set of 4.88 set up are for a decent price. And as far as the engine its a 20 over bore matched trd cam, decked block, trd long tubes no cat straight to a glass pack.

whys that?

fabricator · 12-10-2009, 08:53 AM

I lifted mine got bigger tires.
I lifted it again got bigger tires.
started flopping over on speedbumps
really was too high and flopped alot.

got pissed off took body lift out to lower it back down.
had issues with steering box hitting body mount ,cause i moved it after the lift and the trans/tcase hitting floor

so after spending hours jacking with the body mount
and days cutting 3'x4' hole in floor, cause i raised the trans/tcase it after the lift ,got it lowered back down.

bottom line is it dont flip as easy as it used to on a speed bump

I would trim fenders if they hit the 33's and move on
lower with a bigger tire always looks better don't you think?

I have been watching this thread and have a question, I have a 86 runner 5spd and just bought 35" and been told to do 5.29's (per TG) but I have also been told to get 4.88's. I only plan on taking out to the trail (driving it) it's not a DD. I am also gearing the t-case for the trails. What's your opinion? Thanks!

I have to agree. If your not going big on tires and plan to keep it on the street, go with 4:56's and 33's. Save yourself some money and grab a factory third member from a 90-95 V6 4-runner with 4:56's. There's one at UPAP right now($60). The V6 third will bolt right up and is stronger. If your staying with IFS up front, you could even grab the front diff with 4:56's although it's not fun to pull. If your going SAS, just find another runner to pull the rear diff and you have cheap 4:56's with stronger thirds.

I'm running 4:88's with 35's but MY runner is a SAS'ed 90 with the V6. I like it on the road and sorry to say it hasn't been off road enough with the new setup to give a good review.

Almost forgot, This guy told me I could have the rear third for $50 if I pulled it and I just never had the time to go get it so there's 2.
