    I find people are always scared to go to low. Most of today's hi reving engines get better gas milage running at a higher rpm. You want your max torque rpg to be your causing rpm, or close to it. So take a Toyota 2.7 it makes max torque around 3900 rpm. So you will get way better milage with that engine running 3200 rpm at 75 then you will running 2000 rpm at 75. So you want to match your gear ratio, tire size, and engine rpm for best results.

    One of the best UA-cam videos On this topic
    really good shop, super in-depth explanation, I wonder with the thinner thickness of the individual grooves on the ring, since the ratio goes up, he mentioned that the stock one has thicker parts to the ring as it’s a lower ratio, I wonder how that affects durability, sorry for a wrong terminology
    I’d come up from Arizona to get this done with you guys
    Goal is strength and reliability in the gears over all

    Awesome video! Thanks for the tips! I just lifted my 2020 Tundra Crewmax 3.5” RC lift with 34.5” Nittos… Noticed a slight hesitation going from gear 1 to 2, but not terrible. Everything else is smooth. Should I think about regearing or is this just to be expected? Worried about transmission longevity.

    So regearing would allow a lower RPMs on the highway ultimately saving fuel?
    I don't plan on raising the vehicle I don't plan on getting bigger tires I just want to get better fuel economy because fuel is expensive in Canada.

    I really want to lift my 2nd gen Tundra and run 37in tires and regear to probably 5.29 gears from the stock 4.30. The problem is I can't do it all in one go. That's a good $12k all at once. I can only do it in steps, probably one thing at a time over a 2-4 year period or longer.
    I can't figure out if I should to the regear before the larger tires, or after. If I do the regear before, that means I have super low gearing on stock size tires which will very likely negatively affect my fuel economy, which is kind of important now that gas is $5 a gallon. But if I do the larger tires before the regear I know that will have a reduction in fuel economy as well.
    Either way I am stuck with the consequences of the decision for probably at least 2 years, if not longer. So I don't really know which way to go.

      I would suggest getting the lift, wheels and tire first before regearing.

  • @clover7359
    @clover7359 2 роки тому +1

    The only downside to regearing to a higher numerical axle ratio is the fact that the small input pinion will necessarily be weaker than a larger input pinion. That can turn into a point of failure if you tow heavy loads.

    • @ernestjohnson1807
      @ernestjohnson1807 Рік тому +3

      The stress is lessened with the lower gears offsetting the smaller pinion size. Lower gears mean less load on the rest of the drive train. It's like using a 6ft shovel instead of an old folding army shovel.

    Question sir Going with my choice largest tire size 33s and carring say mid-weight Bumpers winch skid plates cargo bed rack. Not a lot of cargo stuff
    ( Camping Gear ) but towing a teardrop trailer ( weight about 1200lbs ) what would be best on gear ratio ?
    4:88 or 5:29 ?? Thoughts please .
    I dont also do hard Off reading mostly trail exploring type off roading
    I'd say moderate to medium difficulty trails . Thoughts ?? TIA

    Hello. I have a 1988 Toyota 4x4 with a rebuilt 22RE I changed the tires and wheels from 235/75 15 to 265/70 17, everything else is stock. I want to make it my daily commuter. The problem I’m having: the elevation where I live 5600’ and I drive to almost 7000’ daily sometimes twice a day. The Toyota loses power going up the hill. Will regearing help me out or what do you recommend.

    • @SeasonAscent
      @SeasonAscent Рік тому

      Regearing will definitely help. The larger tires already add in extra load for your engine even before going up hill. The tire size you mentioned means an increase of 9.3% of diameter. That means you would want to increase your gear ratio also by 9.3% to take that strain off the engine.

    I believe it has a 3.91 what about going to a 3.73 or 3.42? I’m not rock crawling but just a gravel road maybe some into 4wd. I pull a 1200# camper, that’s loaded. I’m running ridge grappler 265/65/17. I’m looking for better fuel mileage and not banging in and out of gears

    I am looking to get 2010+ fj cruiser for overlanding. Rear and front steel bumpers, roof top tent, and running 35s on a 3 inch lift? I have heard none experienced installs end up breaking the gears because how the teeth are touching. I was looking at 488s. What would the general cost be and now long would this take? Thank you

  • @jonathanellis5811
    @jonathanellis5811 2 роки тому

    So, if my goal is to turn my Toyota Sequoia into a daily driver that I can take most places, and have no desire to add any lift or increase the tire size, would changing out the gear ratio increase my fuel economy?
    To clarify, I'm thinking specifically of the Nitro 5.29 ratio gears. If a different gearset would accomplish this, I'd be interested in knowing what that is.
