I beleive McSumway chose 3.9's because he has a manual which comes out with 3.5:1 diff ratio, so 3.9's would be ideal on his 32's....

My 32" tyres were roughly 10% larger then the 29" stds so I reckoned that 3.5 + 10% was 3.85 so 3.9 was the go.
I have modded this to return my gearing to stock not for rock crawling as I plan on quite a few outback trips with this version of the Hilux.

The benefits are very clear cut with the manual. I can feel the takeoff is better. I suppose the auto might mask the problems of gearing a little.
