TE axle ratio

[Falls]

I searched and found someone asked about the gear ration in an SR5 and wondered if anyone can confirm the ratio in TE is the same as SR5 and limited ? (3.73 was what was thrown out there for the SR5)

Every time I see that video I get the urge to hit gnarly trails with my TE.

Thank you Harper .

I loved that video !!!

I was surprised to hear that these have twin tube shocks though . I always thought mono-tube were a better shock for a vehicle that was built for on and off road. I have felt that the stock shocks have been the weak link in the stock suspension even before I watched this video. That is just from my personal driving experience.

I did the calculator and if you running stock 265/70/17 with 3.73 axle ratio and switched to 285/70/17 it would take you to a FDR of 3.60 which is not to bad if you run 285/70/17's.
