8" 4.55 ratios?

Post by BlueSuzy »

*toyo diff noob*

Im hunting for some 4.55, 1x High pinion and 1x Low pinion, 8" lux sizing.

I have found a list for the bundera's, Which would be aweome if i found a bundera with both front and rear centres in it still.. But they are very rare!!
84-85 2.4TD(2LT) LJ70 4.88
85-92 2.4TD(2LT) LJ70 4.88
84-85 2.4P (22R) RJ70 4.3
**85-92 2.4P (22R) RJ70 4.55**

I can't find a list for the hilux'/4runners/surfs??

My mate had a 96' solid axle single cab ln106 2.8 diesel but had 4.5's?? I thought 4.55's were only in petrols?

The centre's i have atm are Lux4.3LP, Bundera4.8HP, and a Big/v6size bundera 4.8 LP with lsd

Would any of these be compatable if i bought some new 4.55' from somewhere?

I don't want 4.88' as im scared that my zook will be reving way too high on the freeways.

I also have 2 ARB rd132 to go in. So these will need to be compatible with the diffs with suitable bearings..I have heard i may need to swap/change them..

Sorry for the long question :oops:

Thanks
Tim

4.55 is a common ratio in the Surf's (with stronger V6 rear housing) so that should sort the rear easily enough.

The RD132's will suit any Toyota 8" diff (HP & LP). Just get the correct bearings to suit your housing.

If the ratios have not been changed, the code on the ID plate should read -
G254 = 4.55 gears with 4 pinions
or
G255 = 4.55 gears with 4 pinions LSD

Happy hunting :)
