Didn't you post this 2 days ago? Anyway here's my response...see the
others too.

If your truck has a manual transmission, the differential from a truck
with an automatic transmission might have a lower ratio (geared
higher). Check the Toyota specs before buying though.


Don't forget the downside of such a change. Your speedometer and
odometer will be off if you change tire sizes or rear end gearing.
Also, the lower gears will not be as effective when you use the truck
as a truck.


Finally, I have to ask seriously what are your reasons for making the
change.
