3.0 gears

I have a quick question concerning gears. My brother has a 91 pickup 3.0 and I have a 90 22re with stock 4.10's in mine. My question is will his stock 3.0 gears be lower gears than what i currently have? I thought the 3.0 manual came with 4.56 buy am not sure. If his gears are 4.56's than i want to switch them in my vehicle. As his truck is not running at the moment. Can someone help me out with this.

Not according to the chart. My '93 3.0 5 speed is 4.10s and the 3.0 auto 4Runner is 4.56. Better to just check the chart, or verify manually.

lets get this straight...

rule of thumb...

v6 manual 29" tire package = 4.10s axle code = G294
v6 auto 29" tire package = 4.56s axle code = G254
v6 manual 31" tire package = 4.56s axle code = G254
v6 auto 31" tire package = 4.88s axle code = 188

Check my sig, I got G292. Unless I'm mistaken, doesn't that mean 4.10's with 2 pinion.

edit; here's my entire code.

8D8 - JF11 - G292 - A340H


And my door jam plate says 225/75R/15

I thought and according to the chart the 4.88 code is 144 not 188
