Have not been around a lot here lately but that is life for you. Busy busy.
So the family did some camping this past weekend with our little pop up camper trailer. It is really small and the 4Runner pulls it okay as is. We were talking about some day in the future getting a larger trailer though. I just don't think the Runner will be too happy about that unless I regear it.
It is still stock gearing and as far as which gears are in it exactly I dont know. The code I have shows 3 options. Someone mentioned you can jack up the rear end and count drive shaft revolutions and compair the ratio with the tire rotations? Am I getting that right? I understand ratios and that seem correct. I imagine I should start with figuring this out.
I am running 285/75R16's and am really happy with them so no larger tires for me. Seems like 4.55 or 4.88 is where I need to be if I want to pull anything in the 3,000 lb area. Obviously this would help it off road as well.
So any solid information out there that would help a guy out with this line of thinking?
