Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Gidday ALL

I have been looking at sites that tells me what Diff Ratios are in what Hilux. Havent had much luck.
Im told from Early 80s to early 90s it was all pretty much the same?

2.4 Petrols were the 4.88??

Deisels were 4.3??? Is that right?

What was the 4.5??

deisels aswell look in the bible and there should be some thing in there

I got one from a IFS petrol I think

Ive had a look in the bible.
The thread in Diffs didnt work for some reason.

Does any one know what came out of what??

Work out your diff ratio with the fist part vin number and the tag on body which has axle code. Go here and you will find.

My 93 LN106 2.8 diesel came with 4.3's

http://downunder4x4.net/forum/showthread.php?t=3167

most are in here

in 98-04 hilux's, the 2.7 had 4.3

the V6 manual had 4.1 the auto had 4.5

the diesels had 4.5

i forgot what the turbo diesel had
hoped that helped

THanks!

The threads have heaps of info.

A last question!

Are Hilux and Bundy Diff centers interchangeable??

I'm sure i read on here they are but someone will know for sure

yes

Thanks Dawso

is there much advantage changing the diffs???
anyone know what the ratio's are of the bundys??
if they are lower than the hilux's they could help with the gearing

is there a difference between the 1998 5L diesel hilux and a 01 hilux with the 1KZTE both 4wd diff ratios if there is a difference.

anyone know what ratio my 02 3rzfe 2.7 petrol Lux has..

Dad owns a 01 lux with the 1kzte motor and his ratios where from memory 3.97 or some wired like that he broke the front diff.

so i put in a set of 4.1 with air lockers and a set of 35's his happy now

5L = 4.5
1KZ= 3.7
5VZ-FE (V6)= 4.1

they are farking useles....

cant even order an airfilter without a vin number and rego number and engine number ..... you get the drift....

yeah had to get a gear the other day for T/belt couldn't get one aftermarket $92 just a thought. mark tailshaft and wheel turn wheel one turn exactly and count turns of shaft and roughly gues the .3/.5/.8/.9 shouldn't be to hard this is the way i've been told buy a scrutiner that does the V8's when at qld raceway if it's out a bit they know to get them to pull it out.

i'm sure I could work it out from the vin placard...

just means I actually have to go out to the cold garage.. lift the bonnet.. and read

Well according to this:

it should be 4.3 but I'm not confirming it. Placard code will reveal all.

thanks.....

took a look at placard code and it does not make any sense i.e. does not match up with the code on that other link...

if anyone can decode it... W56 A05B ...

W56 is the gearbox code.

A05B is the diff code which means its a 3.7, not sure about the B, could that have been a misread "3"? That would make it a 2 pinion LSD.

Jack up on wheel and rotate it untill the tailshaft does two full revolutions, the number of rotations your wheel did is your ratio. I pretty sure this works.

If your rear is a LSD, then do this to one of your front wheels.

I was under the impression that 2.7L petrol Hilux's were 4.3, I know someone with one thats 4.3 anyway (99 model I think).

My 94 2.8 diesel diff code is G285, this means an 8" 4.3 with 4 pinion lsd. Is the front diff also going to be a 4 pinion? I am thinking of putting in an auto locker in the front and need to sort it so I can order the right one.

Thanks

hey all, i couldn't work out crap from that ratio website. i got model number and stuff (including trans/axle code) but yeah, i couldn't figure it out. i've got an old '85 runner with a 3Y engine.
Trans/Axle code: G52 G142
been told they are 4.8's and that's what i read in the workshop manual, just checking. also would that be adequate for 33's, or is it a matter of "drive it and see" kinda thing??

They will be 4.3s mate,

yep you have 4.88 gears according to that code.
