Transfer Case

The 2nd Gen 4Runner Transfer Case Needs More Than Stock Can Give

The second generation 4Runner ran from 1990 to 1995 and came with a gear driven transfer case from the factory. When you are picking a line through rocks or crawling a steep descent, a higher numerically low range ratio gives you much finer throttle control and more torque multiplication. This is where aftermarket transfer case gear sets and upgraded cases make a real difference in how your truck performs.

Trail Creeper 4.7 Transfer Case Gears Deliver Real Crawl Ability

Trail Creeper 4.7 transfer case gear sets are the most direct path to a lower crawl ratio while keeping your existing case. These gear sets are available in both 21 spline and 23 spline input options to match your specific transmission. Key reasons builders choose this upgrade include:

• Dramatically lower crawl ratio compared to the factory low range setting
• Retains your stock transfer case housing for a cleaner, less invasive installation
• Purpose built for gear driven Toyota transfer cases found in 2nd gen 4Runners

For many Toyota 4Runner owners, the gear set upgrade is the single highest impact drivetrain mod available at this price point.

2nd Gen 4Runner Dual Transfer Case Setups Multiply Your Crawl Ratio

The Trail Creeper 2.28 x 4.7 dual transfer case combines 2 cases in series, pushing your effective low range ratio far beyond what any single case can achieve. Before committing to a dual transfer case build, keep these facts in mind:

• Floorboard modification is required for clearance
• 21 spline and 23 spline dual case adapters are sold separately to match your input shaft
• This setup is best suited for dedicated off road rigs where maximum low speed control is the priority

For the builder who wants the ultimate crawling setup, this is the top of the line option on this page.
