just spoke to a tech from marlin about the birfs...he recommends the bobby long 30 spline complete set. checked the site: $645 for axles and birfs and all. not too bad considering marlin sells theirs at 250 a pop plus axles at 200 a piece. and they are only 27 spine....thought id let everyone know!

Info like this is likely to revolutionize the Toyota industry!   :yupyup:

 :psss: Longfields are no secret around here, many of us already run them.  If your trying to build strong and stay within a budget, get a Detroit rear locker, Aussie front locker and Longfieds for the front.  Don't go over 33 inch tires on the stock birfs and no front locker until you upgrade either.

 :wave:

1989 4Runner: Dual Ultimate (Inchworm front & Marlin 4.70 rear), Marlin Twin Stick, 1200-lb clutch, 4.88 R&P, Aussie Front, Detroit rear, 30-spline Longs, Long hub gears, ARP hub and knuckle studs & 35x12.50 Cooper STT PRO tires.  Marlin rear bumper & sliders.  FROR front bumper.  SAS with Alcan springs & Rancho 9000XL shocks.  Budbuilt Bolt-on traction bar.  Custom Interior Cage by Those Guys Rod and Customs.
