Any thought on Marlin T-case gears, or are you happy with the 31's and 4.56's crawl ratio? |
I have thought about it but I don't think I need it for what I typically use this 4Runner for which is a game retriever. I get into very tight spots sometimes but low range has always been more than adequate and now, with the lockers, I should be fine. Now if I ever move to Colorado or parts beyond then I might consider something more radical.
The 4.56 ratio is pretty nice with the 31" tires as the speedometer is back to being dead on. It also helps with highway travel as the 22RE is in a better place on the powerband curve in 5th gear. I can cruise at 80 mph as long as the road is relatively flat.

Its fantastic. I used heavy springs up front and medium in the rear with the heavy shocks all around. The 4Runner sits very level and the ride is very nice. I don't feel like it's too stiff at all. The only trouble that I had with it is the factory draglink would not clear the U-bolts, even though I installed the "special" flattened OME U-bolts. I had to install a Procomp drop draglink. I might go with cross-over steering sometime in the future and then it wouldn't matter.
