4.10 gears and 33s

The change from 4.10 to 4.56 is maybe at most 300rpm

 

Makes sense.

I need to move somewhere that is downhill to and from work.

I still cannot even begin to process 58 MPG in a taco.

 

Whenever I choose a gear ratio , most rpm Gear ratio charts are color coded like for economy best mpg / daily driver and performance-power . I would always choose a gear ratio that offers the most power !!!

 

well i got the 4.10 in the garage and theyre going in saturday whenever i can get around to it.

 

any of yall got any tips for me installing tomorrow?? break in period?

 

If the Ring and Pinion are used, you shouldn't need any break in period. IIRC, that is only if you are installing a brand new non REM polished set of R&P gears.

I have 4.30 gears, 295/70/17 tires and I get between 14-16 mpg and that’s even calculating the 8% difference.

 

diff is in and its awesome. gears feel great too but i gotta pull them again. i didnt get the backlash set right. the girl friend is about to kill me...."all you do is talk about your CAR and work on ur CAR" homie issa TRUCK lol cant make everyone happy

 

Is this your first gear setup? Only asking because it is very skilled and detailed work, not just shade tree work.

 

yeah it is. my neighbor helped me with it he's a mechanic and has done them before.

 

So what's the verdict? Are you satisfied with the 4:10 gear ratio on 33s? Looking to do tha same set up & just stumbled in this thread. Does it feel like stock again?

 

it felt better and mpg went up. the stock gears are back in due to a 4x4 conversion.

 

Cooooolios, I have a prerunner too - 2nd gen. Looking to lift on 33s next year first & decide whether I will really need to regear or not after.

 

I get 13-15 in the city and 11 on the highway. I have 265/75/16.

 

Ouch!! I have a 2015 prerunner on 285/70/17 hwy avg is 20.5 and city is about 18.5-19 average combined is about 20 in stock 3.73, just did a fill up the other day 347miles on 17.8 gallons and that’s without recalculating for tire size. Planning on going to 4.10s

 

what size tire? 33x12.50 or 285/70?

 

Whom are you asking?

 

You must have some really heavy tires/wheels! That's very low MPG. I'm going for P rated 285 / 70 17 tires

 

Something isn't right with your truck. I'm running the same tire size and get the same mileage dragging this around...
