so I have been working on trying to get some 4.30's back in to my 4runner front . I had munched up the ring gear in mine. So EVERY damn diff I come across has the damn blasted 4.10's in it.. I mean WTF.. I came across a steal on a roll over with a good running motor and by means of spinning the wheel and counting rotations on the yoke I had come up with 2 turns wheel with 4 and a lil over half turns on the yoke (one rear wheel lifted)... looks like 4.56.. I mean I did this scenario on mine and counted 2 wheel and 4 and a third on my yoke, so 4.30, which also matches the doorjamb identification of G284 for the 4.30... and the numbers on the roll over I picked up, that i counted 2 wheel and 4 and a half yoke turns, matches the numbers for 4.56 of G254. This info was obtained here >> (Gearratiosanddiffs)
So I pulled the front diff out and low and behold 41 ring and 10 pinion.. a damned 4.10.(the damned ring gear even has a 4.5 stamped on it). i pulled the cover from mine previously and counted 43 to 10 so i know it is a 4.30....(my ring gear has a 4.3 stamped on it)
AM I MISSING SOMETHING. IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE EFFECTING THIS RATIO?... OR HAS TOYOTA JUST SLAPPED STICKERS ON WHATEVER...
SOOO DISAPPOINTED .. I just CANT find a damn 4.30....
If the donor was 4.56 I was going to swap front and rear or do an even trade for a 4.30 from a guy about an hour away. Now I cant do either and I dont want the 4.10's.... ugghhhhh I know it should be 41 ring and 9 pinion for the 4.56... sooo frustrated
4.30'S ANYONE?
