Get the AXLE details from your VIN plate in the engine bay. These are for the rear diff.
In Surfs the letter at the beginning of the code is normally G indicating an 8" diameter ring gear. F would indicate 7.5", E is 7.1", H is 9" and the list is endless
The next two digits indicate the gear ratio as follows:
25 indicates 4.556 gearing
26 indicates 5.571 gearing
28 indicates 4.300 gearing
29 indicates 4.100 gearing
The last digit indicates the no. of pinions
2 indicates 2 pinions
3 indicates 2 pinions with LSDiff
4 indicates 4 pinions
5 indicates 4 pinions with LSDiff
So if your AXLE code reads G254 then you have an 8" ring gear, 4.556 gearing, 4 pinions. I believe the 4.556 gearing suits 31" tyres which did not necessarily come as stock on early 2nd gens, so thats good if you are upgrading to 31'sLast edited by JimL; 14 January 2005, 21:33.Comment
