      Description

      Rear Axle Gear Set. The EXCEL from Richmond 8-Inch Rear Axle Ring and Pinion Gear Kit with a 4.88 Gear Ratio is a precision-engineered differential component designed to effectively transfer power from the driveshaft to the vehicle's wheels. It controls the final drive ratio, enhances torque delivery, and improves vehicle acceleration and towing capabilities. This gear kit is essential for maintaining the proper function and durability of the rear differential in compatible Toyota models.

      Durable Material Construction. Crafted from high-strength 8620 steel, the ring gear delivers exceptional wear resistance and durability under heavy loads. The precision-machined pinion gear features 29 splines and a 1.378-inch shaft diameter, ensuring smooth engagement and a long service life. The components have a standard finish built to withstand harsh operating conditions.

      Installation. Installation requires moderate mechanical skills, including precise alignment and shimming to ensure optimal gear mesh. Drilling is not necessary, as this ring and pinion set is designed for a direct replacement of compatible dropout differentials.

      Warranty. This product includes a 1-year or 50,000-mile warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Application. Fits 03-15 Tacoma with E-Locker and 16-20 Tacoma with Automatic Transmission without OEM E-Locker, ensuring compatibility with specific drivetrain configurations in these model years.
