    Hey guys and gals. So am I limited to just using the 3.92 pumpkin in my 06 SR5 or are there other better options? I learning as I go. I want to Make my Gen one a real badass and the rear end is next on my hit list to change.

    Your rear gearing options are pretty wide. Your particular use would help determine what would be the best setup. Wheel and tire choice, towing, not towing, upgrade to locker or limited slip etc. 4.10, 4.30, 4.88. and on are available for these trucks. If you're 4WD, you gotta do the front diff too.

    You can definitely re-gear your differential(s). Some trucks came stock with 4.10 gears, but 4.56 and 4.88 for instance are readily available aftermarket for the 8.4" Tundra rear end.

    This chart is a good starting point, but your use case is a big factor as well.

    Do us all a favor so we can have more fruitful conversations and help you out.

    Go into your user profile.

    Find the "Vehicle One-Line Description:" box and add the following info:
    • Year
    • Cab type (DC, AC, RC for double, access, regular)
    • Trim package (Limited/SR5/etc.)
    • Engine (V6/V8)
    • Drivetrain (4WD/2WD, include "MT" if manual, include "LSD" if you've got it)
    This helps us skip the "What..." questions on threads like this, or threads where you need help and don't want to re-write your truck details every time.

    I know the 3.92 and 4.10 were available in Tundras and Sequoias in open and limited slip. Is 4.10:1 the highest stock ratio available, or was there a 4:30?

    There was a 4.30 available for early model v-6 trucks. Might have been manual only.

    I know mines got the Limited Slip . . . the tag is still on the pumpkin, and I visually confirmed.

    This or call the parts dept with your vin.


    I think the DC only had 4.10's for '04. Everything else was some flavor of 3.9 (note there is a slight difference in ratio between 2wd & 4wd, due to actual tooth count).
