Front and Rear Axle Ratio help!

I am looking to put some 32 inch tires on my 22re Pickup but I was wondering if I need to swap both third member for 4.56 ratio or only the rear one.

Ty for help!

If you plan to use 4WD the front and rear ratios must match.

Thx for replies guys! Do the front and rear third members on my truck are different or do a rear third member can also work for the front. I am just asking because I am not sure if I need to buy a specific front one and a specific rear one.

Thx guys!

Ok, the rear seems pretty easy to find but the front one is harder, would It be easier to just buy new pinons and ring instead of finding a used toyota third member?

Opinions please!

It will be cheaper to find a used one and swap it out yourself.
