I'm assuming you're running:
1.6 engine - Vitara auto - Sierra transfer - Hilux 4.55 ratios?
Personally would look at series 4's which are around 180%. Not only will your gearing be better but most likely stronger than a set of welded up rocklobster transfer gears. This way if you're gears are too low you can just play with diff ratios which are easy and cheap to source for Hilux diffs.
You might find that you'd get that chassis to work a little better with 37-38" tyres unless you plan on running chromo CV's and axles.
