How did you get 4.88s stock? My SR5 w/ 31"s came with 4.56s

I've changed the rear to a 4.88, but am still looking for a front 3rd w/ a 4.88.

My '95 4Runner (3.0, auto) has 4.88's stock.

the factory 4.88 rear carrier is the same as the rest of the truck carriers. ARB, Lockright, Detroit...They'll all fit. The only thing you can't do (easily) is change the ring and pinion.
