4.88 to 4.3 diff ratio change- does my VSS need calibration?

Post by Luxxer »

Gday guys,

Just changed from 4.88s to 4.3s in my Commodore V6/88 Hilux

Given that its manual trans with cable speedo, does the VSS (Marks transfer case mounted unit) really need calibration for the new diff gears? I mean, seeing as how the VSS is not controlling any auto trans functions, all it really needs to tell the ECU is when its deaccelerating, yes??

Any input appreciated.

It tells the ECU a bit more than that but you don't NEED to re calibrate it.

Cheers
