the transfer case has nothing to do with the diff ratio, the transfer case is at the back of the main transmission housing. It contians the means by which power is "transfered" to the rear wheels. It is exactly the same for all years of 4wd transmissions.

do you means the front bell/diff housing? That contains the front diff with the gear ratio of 4.1:1 ('85-88 years) or 3.73:1 ('83-84).

Florykitty exactly what is wrong with your transmission.
The gear box is the same in all 4wd tercels.
It can be confusing because the gear box and the differential Look like one big transmission.
They are really two separate parts you can get the gear box out of any year t4wd then attach it to the 4.1 gears on your car.
That is if yours doesn't shift properly.

If you have the ring and pinion gears that look like a bell housing in your garage and it's still good then all you need is the gear box (shifting part of the gears) out of any tercel 4wd.

Photograph the good part and the bad part here on the forum so we can understand exactly what needs to be replaced.

your post is really confusing. Do you need a whole transmission assembly, or only the gear box? Or only a differntial perhaps? or a transfer case?

Sounds like a whole transmission/trans-axle assembly, but your use of words and incomplete sentences are difficult to understand what exactly you need.

it sounds like you are talking about the front differential assembly (includes the bell housing, does not include the gearbox or input shaft).

I might have a good one in my pile of parts. where are you located?
