Alright well hopefully I get the axle today after work I'll post pics when I get it

wolf28

Next question Wats the easiest way to find out wat gears I have In my rear axle so I can match the new front

Xeo

Look at the door placard should be a code there starting with a G and numbers following it

Sent from my HTC Incredible S using YotaTech

Cyberman

Like Xeo said. More than likely you've got 4.10s.

wolf28

where on the place card is the g I found 2 different g's with 2 different numbers that don't seem like gear ratios

Cyberman

To the right of the barcode, right after "A/TM". Should show gear code followed by transmission type.

ok I got g252 according to the chart I have a 8 inch rear with 4.55 gears and a 2 pin open diff

Cyberman

You sure? You have a v6 right? You should have a 4 pin diff.

Can you take a pic of the sticker?

wolf28

yup I got the v6 this might help they miss coded some door stickers
Toyota sometimes mistakenly coded trucks with 4 pinion
diffs with a "2" code. To verify if yours is a 2 or 4 pinion
diff, count the number of fins on each side of the diff. A 4
pinion diff will have 4 fins on each side. A 2 pinion will
have 3 fins on each side.

All 1986-1987 turbo 22RE-T trucks/4Runners and 1988
through mid 1995 V-6 trucks should have a factory 4 pinion
diff.

Just read threw. A lot of good info in here so far interested to see how she turns out

wolf28

so wat kit should I go with all pro or the trail gear kit

Teuf

Trail Gear...........

wolf28

I was gonna do trail gear but other people said stay away do all pro.. thing is I don't have money for the all pro kit

Its all the same stuff man. I believe chefyota4x4 went the T.G. route andvit worked out great for him. I've seen it perform in person and it looks like its held up great. Is a TG kit is what you can afford I would go that way. Just call them and have them remove the parts what you do have such as rotors. I asked all pro to do this for me as well and they just sold me a partial kit because I had a bunch of parts too.

Cyberman

Do not remove any parts. The rotors in the kit are different, and are needed for your calipers to line up correctly. You cannot reuse the stock ones. Get the kit, and be done.

Redeth005

I got the rotors in my kit because mine were horribly wasted. But wolf said his are fairly new. The ones in the kit are V6 rotors. They looked exactly like what I already had on mine. Why wouldnt his current ones work out? Just curious for whenever I need to buy myself some new ones. Because I thought the v6 ones from the kit were the same as IFS ones. Aremt they?

Cyberman

The rotors in the kit are 81+ Land Cruiser rotors. IFS rotors do not work, because the rotors on ifs slide over the hubs, whereas the solid axle rotor is bolted behind the hub.

If you look at the IFS rotor vs the rotor in the kit, the "hats" are a different height.

Redeth005

Ohh I see thanks for that. Now I know.

wolf28

wait aren't ifs rotors behind the hub also
