Im thinking about lifting my 1994 toyota pickup 4 inches and putting 33's or 35 in. tires. How much does it cost to re-gear. What gears do you reccomend?How much does it cost to re-gear a toyota pickup?Rember you will need to replace the front and the rear gear or you will tear up you 4WD transfer case.
You can get a set of gears for around $150 per axel and then labor, depends on who you have do it.
as far as what gears, What are you doing, do you want to keep your Highway milage or low gears for rock crawling.
If you want Highway then go smaller, Rock crawl go higher.
Rember that taller tires will give you the ilusion of more highway type gears.
you will be going faster than your Spedo is reading with bigger tires and if you change gears it will be way off.

How much would it cost to replace alternator in Toyota 4Runner?
i recently changed my car battery and it was drained overnight. i have already checked the fuses and they were all okay, and was wondering if the alternator is the one that is causing the problem. how much does it cost to replace the alternator in my Toyota 4Runner?
i would appriciate any help.How much would it cost to replace alternator in Toyota 4Runner?a bad alternator will not cause your battery to drained overnight. if your battery is new and dead the very next morning, could be that you have a parasitic draw. meaning there is something that is staying on, like a bulb, that should not be. a charging test will tell you if your alternator is bad.
to do either of these tests you will need a DMM (digital multimeter).
to test for parasitic draw: disconnect the negative battery cable. set your DMM to amps. place one lead to the negative cable end, and the other to the negative battery terminal. if you get more than about 37 mili amps, you have a parasitic draw somewhere. start disconnecting stuff to see if it goes away. when it does, that is the system with your draw.
to test your alternator: preferably a hand held starting/charging tester is the way to test your alternator. but if you don't have one, you can try with the DMM. with the engine running, turn all accessories on (radio, A/C, lights), place your red lead of the DMM to the positive battery terminal and the negative lead to the negative battery terminal. you should get around 13-14volts. if it's around 11 or 12 or under, your alternator is probably bad.
good luck!

Is there a growing trend of angry motorist towards Toyota Prius drivers?
I don't know if this is true or not, but apparently there is a growing trend of angry Californian motorists targeting Toyota Prius drivers. I want to know if it is true. Is it the driver itself that is the problem or the weight of the car or something else. Share your stories.Is there a growing trend of angry motorist towards Toyota Prius drivers?It's the attitude that by spending extra money to get a more expensive car that is falsely promoted as environmental (some conventional cars get nearly the same gas mileage, and the lead in the batteries is worse for the environmental than the slight difference in carbon dioxide output between a those cars and a Prius) one buys the right to do all sorts of other things that are much worse for the environment. This is especially true when Prius owners who drive to and from work everyday in a Prius look down on others who own a regular car, but usually use a bus or train, and use less gas and make less pollution than the Prius does (because it is being driven more).Is there a growing trend of angry motorist towards Toyota Prius drivers?

Any ideas on what might be wrong?What is the clicking sound on my 2008 Toyota Highlander?Bring it to a dealer right away. THese vehicles are death traps and are unsafe. They are not engineered well, not built well, and Consumer reports and JD Power has us all brainwashed that these are good vehicles. The media is has a price and toyota paid it.
