I know there are tons of threads about re gearing and diff work, but I can't find what I'm looking for using this Tapatalk app. Just got 35s on installed them on my 99 limited.
When I had 33s my 4Runner had no problems accelerating or going up hills. The first thing I noticed was a lack of acceleration and it struggles a bit going up hills, so obviously it's time to re gear.
I think im going with 4.88 for gears because I think anything more than that would just be too much. If I am not mistaken, my 4Runner currently has 4.30's so I think 4.88 would be just enough for what I need. It's my DD but I do get a good amount of snow where I live and I do a decent amount of off roading during the summer and the majority of it is sandy dunes when I visit my beach house.
I know I am kind of ranting on here but I know these are things to consider when re gearing. I guess what I need help with is getting the gears. Idk if there are certain type of gears I should get and if I just need the gears or do I also need other components for the differential.
I am considering these G2 gears.
G2 Axle and Gear - Toyota 8in. 4.88 Ratio | 4WheelParts.com
Do I just need these gears or do I need other things to go along with the gears. I am only doing the rear diff for now and I am not doing it myself. I'm sending it to the shop to get it done because I've seen how much a pain in the ass re gearing can be.
Any feed back is appreciated. Thanks!
