Replacement Ring and pinion

BJ71 · Post by **BJ71** » Wed Nov 21, 2007 11:53 am

I am after a replacement crown wheel and pinion for a 94 Prado rear (with E-locker) 4.3 ratio.

i believe they are the same gear set as the heavier hilux turbo/v6 diffs.

does anybody know who in NZ or Oz can supply the gear sets at a resonable price, NOTE Toyota isn't one of them.

or if anyone has a none locker centre available i dont mind swaping the gear sets over.

Thanks

Tony

Cant help with 4.3, but I'll have some 4.88's and some 5.29's for the V6 carrier soon

South Is Bearing supplies was recommended to me when I was pricing up 4.88's, they had a decent price IIRC. The wrecker in Rotorua is selling new hilux/prado R&p's for $250, I'd guess they'd have 4.3s.

not sure about 5.29's but he has definately had Toyo Cw & P's

Good quality ones from Italy, been well tested in rally cars too.

Is that new 4.88 R&P's for $250 Clint?

Is the Prado front high pinion physically the same?

Cheers

Yep, I got a couple of prices around the $250 mark for new 4.88s

I haven't had the front chunk out to be sure but legend has it that it is the same apart from being 2-spider rather than 4 like the back & possibly a different spline on the sidegears.
