    I'm looking to re-gear the taco. I bought the truck and it had 37" tires and was geared very low to match the speedo. I dropped the tires to 33" to save my gas from my commute. I don't know what ratio I have currently. So I've been jumping forum to forum and I'm thinking yukon 5.26 ratio is about what i need. But I'm looking to some advice before I jump into this. I also have to find out what to do with the front diff as well. Any suggestions would be accepted.

    If you plan on using 4wd you need the front regeared at the same time, they need to match ratios. Setting up a third is something you want done by someone who knows how.
