Okay so i don't think i have an issue then. If i go up a 6% grade in the rocky mountains i could hit 45-50mph in third gear at 4k RPM. Sounds like everyone here says that is pretty normal.
Not sure what my gear ratios are, as far as I know all the gears are stock. I am just afraid of pushing my rig past 3k RPMS so i'm sure it would run about 50 mph at 4k
This answer seemed to clarify that it is not a big problem.

Hey guys so my buddy was riding with me uphill in the colorado mountains, he was concerned when i told him i typically have to keep my 4runner in 3rd at about ~35-40 mph and ~3k-4k rpms depending on the grade of hill. (he's a mechanical engineer so i trust his opinion to check things out)
Is...
Actually after a lot of research i think these should fit. about 3/4 a way down the page there are parts for the old 4runners
4Crawler Offroad Products - Front Differential and Sway Bar Drop Kits
Do you guys have any recommendations for parts? I looked at my ace hardware and I'm not sure they are going to have a decent spacer part.
Any kits out there that fit a 92? All i'm finding is 2000 and up 4runner kits
Here are some that i have found...
Cool **** yeah thanks man. i was thinking i can build something like this at Ace Hardware https://www.amazon.com/Revtek-RTDD1-KB-Differential-Drop-Spacer/dp/B003EOZLH6 Looks easy enough
I found some people talking about drops but no tips on which one i should do for the 92' . i have a 3' lift and i keep seeing people that just buy a 1 inch kit and that seems to be fine.

So my Cv axles are at a huge angle and a mechanic recommended i drop my differential to even everything out. do you guys have opinions on drop kits or whatever i need? I'm new to the wrenching and workin on trucks.
Let me know thanks!!:rockon:
