Here is how to calculate your overall crawl ratio. It's a simple formula. Multiply your first gear, times your low range transfer case gear, times your differential gear. For example if you have: 3.93 first gear in your transmission 2.28 low range gear in your transfer case 4.10 gears in your differentials Your crawl ratio is 3.93 X 2.28 X 4.10 = 37:1 If you have two transfer cases then you also multiply the number by the second case like this: 3.93 first gear in your transmission 2.28 low range gear in your first transfer case 4.70 low range gear in your second transfer case 5.29 gears in your differentials Your crawl ratio is 3.93 X 2.28 X 4.70 X 2.29 = 223:1 Below is a list of gear ratios in popular Toyota Transmissions and Transfer cases to make it easy for you to figure your exact crawl ratio.

Most 4 Cylinder mini trucks use a gear drive t/case with a 2.28 low range. However some 4 cyl trucks use the V6 style chain drive case. The best way to find out what type you have is to look under your truck and cound the bolts holding the rear cover in place. If you have 7 bolts in the rear cover then you have the gear driven unit. If you have 5 bolts holding the rear cover then you have the chain drive unit. Gear drive unit with 7 bolts pictured above. Bolt #7 is behind the drive shaft and can't be seen in this picture.
