I will check my local pullaparts. I got mine when there were four 4.88 Runners there. I left two cause I didn't want to be selfish. Give me a couple days.

 

Man if you could that would be awesome!! How far out do u live?i live just 20 miles nw of tallahassee fl

 

Oh, I live a LNG way from you, but I grew up in Albany, my brother is there, and I have some family in Tally. If I can find some 4.88s, we will work something out.

 

Awesome! Thanks man!

 

Ok so i was talking to a guy today with the same setup as my truck accept it had 38" ground hogs.his was auto with 22re just like mine though and he was saying he ran 4:56 gear and pulled a flatbed full of quads and passed people on the highway.now im wondering should i get 4:56 or 4:88s with my 33s?

 

That's up to you. If you ever decide to go to a bigger tire size, you'll want the lower gears. If not, go with the 4.56s.

 

Yeah i dont plan on going any bigger than 33s or any smaller so you think 4:56 would work best for me?

 

Give it a shot, you can always replace the 4.56s with 4.88s later....

Don't forget you could have a more tired engine than the other guy did. He could have also had a tighter trans. There are a lot of variables, so don't think that you will be passing everyone, hauling a trailer of quads... You may, or you may not.

 

True but my engine is really strong. Only has 159k.i just want my stock power back but not too much overkill and i cant decide what to get.im changing my mind like the weather but i think ill still go with the 4:88s

 

4.10 to 4.56 is only a 10% change.. i read that statement on here somewhere, im quoting it and dont want to be flamed if it is incorrect. it is why i decided to get 4.88s to run my 33s not 4.56.. my thnking was if your gonna cough up that much money mineaswell make a difference and not have to do it all twice when its still to slow.

 

How do the 4:88s work for you?could you do donuts with them?us yours auto or 5spd

 

im half way through installing them. should be done tomorrow or thrsday. I'm sure it wont be able to do donuts haha its a 22re. 5spd .. ill let you know as soon as im done

 

Awesome let me know how it goes.ehat kin of power do u have right now?mine only stays at 50 mph in 5th

 

Auto trannys don't have 5th gear... and you want 4.88's for sure. That being said, you still aren't going to be doing burnouts at red lights or cruising at 70 easily!

 

And it might be common sense but start by gearing just the rear, that way if you want to try something else you aren't changing the front twice

 

Yeah i was still thinking of my 5speed lol and im actually getting the gears in in about a week for the rear

 

Are you accounting for the speedo difference due to tire size increase? Because my truck at 55 on speedo is actually 65-ish on GPS.

 

Yeah it actually is going about 60 when it says 55.biggest prob for me is my take off from a stop.it takes forever to get up.im hoping these new gears will help my mpg.what kind o mpg do you get?mines like 13

 

When I had a 22R, I got 12-ish. With the 3RZ, I get 20 at speed limits, 18 at 85mph.

 

With 4:88s? Any good threads with pics on here on changing the gears?
