Question Different Rear End Gear?

Has anyone changed out their rear gear or changed a gear in their transmission?

I changed the rear end gear for my mustang, but the Tacoma has 3.73 stock on the V6. What ration are you looking to put in?

You won't get much better gas mileage from changing your gears, at least not enough to make the cost of the gears worth it. My Mustang had 3.15 or something like that and I put in 3.73's, I may have lost about .5 MPG is all.
