If you do have the factory 4.88 gears I am not sure if you can get a replacement for them because normal 8" gears will not fit in that third member. You might be able to get them from toyota, but it would probably be cheaper just to get a new normal third and 4.88s from an aftermarket place. I mean while you are in there you should replace the bearings anyways so that is a wash.
