4.88 third
hey. just wondering about swapping to 4.88's in my 4runner. I have a 4cyl 4runner 92' and its got 4.10's in it right now. i've heard that 4.88's come stock in v6's with the 31" tire package. so is it possible if i find one of those that i can put it in my 4runner? just wondering about if that's compitable with my 4runner. so yeah if i could get some thoughts on that it'd be great!
thanks
thanks

so does the donor have to be auto even if mine is a 5sp manual? also mine is g292. so it's 2 pinion. is the g144 the 4 pinion one? will that work still?

From what i have learned in these forums this is how it goes:
31"=4:56
33"=4:88
35"=5:29
If you plan on going to 33" tire later on you should go with the 4:88s
It should work just fine with 31" you will just experience higher rpms and quicker acceleration.
I read a forum here the other the day of someone using 4:88 gears on 31" tires.
SOMEONE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG

go for the 4.88s if you plan on running 33s, I'm currently running 4.56 behind a 3.4 and a 5 speed, and wish I had slightly lower gears. If you're still looking for 4.56s by the time I throw in my 4.88s, you can have mine for a case of beer + the shipping.

ok. yeah i'll probably try and find some 4.88's for it then. because i'm gonna run at least 32's, so i'd rather have that if i can find it.
thanks for the responses.
shipping would probably be a killer on those anyways! haha.

factory 4.88 gears are found on 92-95 pickups and 4runners with a 3vze, automatic and the 31" tire package from the factory.
I got mine out of a 92 "sequoia edition" 4runner.
