TOYOTA LOW GEAR 4.7:1 23 SPLINE

For Gear-Driven T ransfer Cases ONLY

The installation of this gear set requires you to almost completely disassemble the transfer case. We have provided
illustrative assembly and disassembly instructions. If your transfer case is in need of a rebuild, now would be the time
to do it.

Here are a couple of points to keep in mind that will make the installation much easier if you've never disassembled a
Toyota transfer case:

1.) Keep all bolts separated into groups as you remove them and label their container.

2.) Keep all small parts in separate containers and label as to location and origin.

3.) Make sure you have plenty of time and a clean, spacious area to perform the installation.

4.) You might want to have a qualified machine shop remove and install the bearings and seals on the new gears,
input shaft and in the case.

5.) The Trail Tamer instructions (in TT001) are to be used as a guide. The official Toyota shop manual is strongly
recommended for your particular application. See Pages 3 & 4 on this instruction sheet to identify your

style transfer case & see what modifications are needed to your transfer case.

12mm, 14mm and 30mm Metric sockets and ratchet driver
6mm Allen (hex) head wrench
Snap-ring pliers

TOYOTA LOW GEAR 4.7:1 23 SPLINE

For Gear-Driven T ransfer Cases ONLY

Installation Tips: For those who do not have access to a mill, here is an easy way to clearance your reduction

housing. This procedure requires only some marking fluid and a small angled grinder. This should take you about
1 hour, but remember to take your time and do it slowly. If you do not feel comfortable making these modifications,
we offer P/N 51-5911. This is a heavy duty housing that has been pre-clearanced for these gear sets.

First, test fit your new gear set into your reduction housing. You will notice that the
gears will interfere with the casting in multiple locations. Lightly tap the gear into
the casting. This will score the casting at the interference locations. Now using
marking fluid (paint pen, permanent marker, etc.), take the time to carefully mark
all locations where contact is made.

Now that all your marks have been made, it's time to start slowy removing material
from the casting. Using the grinder equipped with a 50 grit disc, begin to work away
at your marked areas. Remember to take mental note of how much each section
of the casting was contacting the gear. Take special care at this point not to remove
too much material.

After the marked areas have been ground away, go ahead and re-test fit the gears
back into the housing. Make sure to rotate the gear and that it has 360 degree
clearance with all areas of the housing. At this point, it may be necessary to re mark
areas where the gear is still contacting the housing. Repeating this procedure a few
times will insure proper fit and you will avoid the possibility of grinding a hole through
the casting.

With all the grinding done, test fit the gear set one last time making sure that every
thing spins freely and that there are no hang ups or tight spots. In addition to the
case, also remember that the shift rails will require some modifications due to gear
interference. This would be the optimal time to complete this procedure as well.
Make sure that the shift detents are installed to insure proper shift location for
modifications to be made.
