Revolution Gear & Axle 07-14 Toyota FJ Cruiser 8in Rear Open Carrier 4.88 Ratio Gear Package

Revolution Gear & Axle is known for making solid drivetrain components, and this 4.88 ratio gear package for your 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser is no exception. If you've upgraded to larger tires or are looking to improve your vehicle's performance off-road or on the highway, changing your gear ratio can make a big difference. This package is designed for the 8-inch rear differential and includes an open carrier, meaning it's a direct replacement for your stock setup if you don't have a locking differential.

Choosing a 4.88 gear ratio is a popular choice for FJ Cruisers running 35-inch or larger tires. This ratio helps bring your engine's RPMs back closer to their optimal range at cruising speeds, which can improve acceleration and reduce strain on your drivetrain. The package includes the ring and pinion gears, along with the necessary installation hardware to get the job done right. Revolution Gear & Axle uses well-made materials to ensure these gears stand up to the demands of off-road use and daily driving.

When installing a new gear set, it's crucial to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure to ensure proper seating and longevity of the gears. This typically involves a period of moderate driving with specific temperature and speed limitations, followed by an oil change. This package is designed to be a complete solution for changing your rear differential ratio, helping to restore lost performance from larger tires.
