Gear ratio?

Just wondering what the rear end gear ratio is on my '92...I'm thinking 4.56?

Am I correct?

"Most Toys sold in the US have 4.10 axle gearing, but this isn't always the case. Four cylinder models with auto trannies often have 4.30 gearing, (4.87 if they came factory-equipped with 31" tires). All V6's with 31" tires and 4-cylinder manuals with 31" tires usually had 4.56 gears. And still others have been changed by their owners, to move oversized tires."

Seeing as it came with 31" tires stock....guess it does have the 4.56

Thanks for the help.

Tacoma V6's with 31's tires almost always have 4.10's from the factory.

Your right, but i think were talking about a 2nd gen 4runner. If It has 31" and a 5 speed id bet money that its got 4.56 gears.
