Revolution Gear & Axle Ring & Pinion Set for Toyota (1979-95) Pickup & (1984-95) 4Runner, 8" Axle (4.88 Ratio, 27-Spline)

This is a 4.88 ratio ring and pinion gear set for the Toyota 8-inch axle in 1979-95 Pickup and 1984-95 4Runner. It is the gear set itself, cut to restore proper gearing on these classic Toyota 4x4s.

The set uses a standard-rotation 27-spline pinion on an 8.0-inch ring gear and is listed with no carrier break, which keeps ratio selection simple. Gears are machined from 8620 steel and precision heat treated to OEM specifications for a strong, quiet setup.

Owners of older Toyota Pickups and 4Runners running larger tires are the typical buyers. A 4.88 ratio is a deeper regear that brings back power and crawling control once you have stepped well up in tire size.

This listing is the gear set only. Pinion and carrier bearings, crush sleeve, shims, pinion seal and cover sealant are not included, and a carrier or locker is separate. Add a Revolution Toyota 8-inch install kit for the bearings, and have an experienced installer set the pattern and backlash.

Match the front and rear gears to the same ratio for balanced gearing. With a proper install, this Revolution set is a quiet, durable regear for the classic Toyota 8-inch axle.
