What is the Gearing in a Feroza, US Rocky

Post by Skyzic »

I am ultimatly wanting to do a SAS but money looks like its going to be tight for a long while :cry: so I was thinking of finding another Rear Axel that you can find lockers for and then welding the front diff. I need to know what the Gear ratio of front and back are so I can find somthing close.

G'Day Skyzic,

Kent is spot - 5.29's.

The ideal axle is a Toyota 8" rear from any Toyota Pickup or 4runner. The newer IFS ones ( 1986 on I think for you US guys ) are 3" wider than the Live Axle Front ones - this will actually match the width of the Wide Track Feroza / US Rocky better if you are keeping the IFS )
The Toy 8" doesn't come factory with the 5.29's but they are available from any good 4wd store or Diff Place. Take your pick of Lockers - preferably a good ol' Aussie Air Locker :armsup:
:D
The only difference really will be the Toys 6 Stud Wheel pattern vs the Daihatsu 5 Stud - should be easy enough to work around though.
Then down the track you can just slot in the Toy 8" Live Axle to match :twisted:
