To those that have blown a front diff in a 04 or therabouts 6 cyclinder Hilux can you confirm for me it was a 4.1 ratio. I have been told thats what they are and we are looking to change ratios to suit larger tyres so need to confirm.
Thanks in advance.

Boof one guy here in Perth had a 04 petrol V6 his was a 4.1 talking to the guy who does my diffs said most he had seen were a 4.1 but there was a 3.9 in a 03 the axle code on the 4.1s are A04B, but most of the diesels have the 3.9/3.7 diffs so maybe they just thru them in for some reason i am not sure toyota logic.
Hope this has helped some.

Cheers Dave thats what I pretty much thought, I will check the axle code and see if it matches. Next thing is to see if my front bar will bolt up

Not sure why they don't correspond but the info i got was from a diff center all he does is diffs and he buys gears from me at times id trust his information 99% as he has been recording the different ratios and wether lsd etc with the trans axle codes.
