Revolution Gear & Axle 90-95 Toyota 4Cyl Gen5 Pickup/Gen2 4Runner 8in Koyo 4.88 Ratio Gear Package

If you're looking to re-gear your 1990-1995 Toyota 4-cylinder Pickup or 2nd generation 4Runner's 8-inch differential, this Revolution Gear & Axle package is a solid option. This kit is designed to give you a 4.88 gear ratio, which is a popular choice for vehicles running larger tires. Going to a lower ratio like 4.88 helps bring your engine's RPMs back into a more efficient range on the highway, improving drivability and fuel economy when you've added larger tires.

This package includes high-quality Koyo bearings, which are well-known for their durability and smooth operation. Revolution Gear & Axle puts these components together to ensure you have what you need for a complete gear change. A proper gear installation requires precision and the right parts, and this kit aims to provide that. The 4.88 ratio is a significant change from stock and is best suited for those who have already upgraded to larger tires, typically 33 inches or more, to restore lost performance and drivability.

When installing a new gear set, it's crucial to follow the manufacturer's break-in procedure carefully. This typically involves a period of moderate driving without heavy acceleration or towing, followed by an oil change. This process allows the new gears to properly seat against each other, ensuring a long service life. This kit is designed for the 8-inch rear axle found in these specific Toyota models.
