Gear compatibility
Hey y'all!
I've found a 4.10 gear set with the main gear measuring 7.5" in diameter. My rear axle is an open 8.8" and currently with a 3.27 gear ratio.
Would I be able to directly replace the old gear ratio with the 'new' one? Any special tools needed?
I'm not very knowledgeable regarding these things, but I have changed my axle seals, and even reassembled the spider gears because I foolishly moved the carrier around after removing the pinion shaft.
I've got a '93 4.0L Supercab 4x4 XLT
Thanks for any/all suggestions!
