What diff ratios are available for the 80 series?

Post by Corgie Carrier »

I would like to know what diff ratios are available to the 80 series diffs.

I searched and all the threads are for a particular tyre size or motor, I would like a list of all available sizes, factory and aftermarket, so I can work out what I want for a good bush ratio.

Factory is 4.10 only. There were no other ratios at all in the 80 series.

4.3 also available, possibly a 5.9(?), however there really is no reason to change them from 4.1 - it is a good compromise ratio providing good strength, cheap replacement, and decent crawl. 80's engines all have excellent low rpm torque characteristics (possibly excepting the 1HD-FT) and aftermarket low range gears are available if you have huge tyres (up to 36" is quite acceptable with the stock ratios).
