03 Locking Diff w/4.30

Just a newbie :confused: here and was wondering if there are any different gear selections for the rear locking diff on My 03 DC TRD TACO (prerunner)? SHEEESH 4.30 stock?? I noticed the non locker option was a 3.93. Just wondering if I might get better gas mileage with a higher gear.

Depends on what size tires you are running. You can simply regear your diff with any available gear.

If you have an Automatic Tranny, then you really don't want to go to higher gearing as all your torque will go away. If you want better mpg, get a free-flowing exhaust, open up your intake a get an electric radiator fan setup.
