    Anyone got a chart identical to the Jeep JK gearing/tire calculations? Haven't seen one for the 3rd Gen Tacoma. Granted, other gears not yet available, but for reference.

    Tell me about it. I have the gears I'm just stuck trying to decide if I want to add a front arb at the same time.

    Yep, I think the gears would make a nice difference in the drivability. One mod leads to another and another.......lol

    Update : 4.88 gears were installed in my manual taco by @Despized and I have to say it's a night and day difference. My power is back with 285s and I got 1 extra MPG on the way home from his shop, but I won't be able to tell my actual MPG gains until I fill up the tank again. Some were asking what the RPMs at 70mph are, and it sits around 2550 at 65MPH which is actually around 69-70mph since i dont have my speedo calibrated, and it also sits at 2750rpms at 70 which is actually 75MPH.

    On that note I wanted to give a big shout out to @Despized for taking care of my gear install and CMC; NO MORE RUBBING!!!! Anyways @Despized knows his stuff, can answer all your questions, and he has great prices on our gears on a lot of our accessories for our trucks, check em out at http://www.rogue-offroad.com/

    Wow, your RPM's are quite a bit higher on the manual than on my auto. On the auto, we have that 6th gear, so about 2000 rpms at 67 mph.

    I'm definitely curious about an mpg comparison. Still on the fence about 4:30 and 4:88

    @joeco, if you have an automatic, get off the fence, it's 4.88 for sure!

    Awesome to hear!! I'm certainly going to get the 488 gears installed ASAP! Sounds like a great fix.

    67 mph @2000 rpm looks good! Plus, I take it the speedo hasn't been calibrated yet?
