Changing rear end???

Hi folks
Just bought a 1985 manual 4wd with a 1984 3.73 tranny in it. They only drove it in fwd.
So.....cant find the right tranny......would changing the rear end solve this mismatch?
Anyone got one?

Changing out rear end instead of tranny in 85

I just bought a 85 sr5 6sp manual that has a 83 tranny in it, so it wont work in 4wd. Having a hard time find the transfer case for the 4.1 rear end. So can anyone tell me if I put a rear end in from a 83-4 it would solve my mismatch? If so does anyone have a 3.73 rear end for sale? Rich Sommers Eag...

Re: 84-85 transaxle ratio differences

Okay. I believe you.
It just didnt make sense to me that the wheels would turn with the other side on ground.
But I thank you for the info.
Still a newbie :oops:

Re: 84-85 transaxle ratio differences

Thanks for the help.
I understand the manual test however, if I jack up only one side, how can the tires turn?
Dont I have to jack up all four wheels for them to spin free? :roll:
I guess there is no way to tell the year/ratios by visual inspection.

84-85 transaxle ratio differences

I am buying an 85 tercel wagon sr5 that the seller tells me has a 84 transmission in it. (manual 4x4) The differential/transaxle gear ratios are supposed to be different between 84 and 85.

I just bought an 88 tercel wagon and it is smoking badly. Is replacing the motor cheaper than rebuilding the current one? The engine is a 3A. Dont know if it is a ff or fr. Do I have to put the same 1.5L in there or are there other peppier engines can I match up with the tranny? Like 20R or 22R? Tha...
