there's a chart somewhere that tells you what gears you have based on the sticker in your door. they are most common in auto v6 4runners, i have them.

They were in V6 auto's with tow package and stock 31" tires. The third member will bolt right in. Not sure what they go for, I will probably be selling mine sometime this next year when I regear. If you didn't already know, the rear third with stock 4.88's can not be regeared, only locked.

anything from 90-95 with an auto and 31's will have them.

NOTE: The thirdmember for these gears are TOTALLY different - they have an offset pinion. There are NO other gears that fit in these thirds. Personally, I would get gears for your current diff - a lot more choices down the road.

ok cool, but know one knows the price of the third member? I'm not going bigger than 33"s considering my longtravil kit works best with 33s, but just curious, why cant you regear yhem?

The 3rd member has a different pinion offset so that the ring gear doesn't need to be as thick. This means that no gears other than the factory 4.88's will fit.

I'd like to run 35's but I'm already having a lot of rubbing on the rear wheel wells and a little on the pinch weld on the font.
