1990 4runner Build (3RZ Swap)

[lilbuddy]

you find a copilot yet?

nope but I may be having a buddy ride along. I don't know. May be alone

[slabcs]

I want to go wheeling.

[lilbuddy]

Just got my 5.29 rear all set up.. its tits. The front i got is junk though. Hopefulyl my buddy will let me just run it for the weekened and then give it back. The gears are after marker and from 1992! insanely old for 5.29s....

I want to go wheeling.

Come up tomorrow.

Haha long ass drive

[slabcs]

When you planning on getting there?

[lilbuddy]

Got the 5.29s in before the con on Friday. The rear 8.4 diff was set up with new gears and is dialed. The front diff had blown up gears but I put themn in anyway so I could go wheelin. Turns out theyre really messed up now. I need a new diff with 5.29s now Got the front shock towers and shocks in last weekend.

Only thing I really need to do to the runner anymore is finish the fender trim, new front diff, trim some more, get some rears up front, and new front shocks and its pretty much dialed. I could get some new hubs since superwinch = super gay.

Ill get pics later. The trip was sick. Hella snowed on us Saturday night. Woke up to 2-3 inches of snow.

[P-DiseToy24]

So the trip was tight uh?  We got about an inch of snow at moon rocks too. crazy weather cause it was like 80 an hour before it started and an hour after 

[lilbuddy]

Pics...

The first two and the 4th pic are with a 25 second exposure, looks badass. Notice the stars? Thats at 11:15PM Friday night

[axled89]

[86bobbedtoy]

dam! Im jelous SNOW!!

[P-DiseToy24]

Wow yea we didnt get that much.... Looked like a sick trip.

[P-DiseToy24]

was talkin to some dude about how lower toy gears are weaker than stock gearing, and he sent me this...... http://www.gearinstalls.com/410suck.htm what do you think about it?  I allways thought lower axle gears= weaker

 

[bigarms23]

[locked 4x4]

That looks like one hell of a trip. 

[ToYocRawleR]

thats interesting as far as the numbers go but as far as real world and JUST what I have personally seen, 5.29s have blown up countless times over 4.10s. i cant think of any of my friends that have popped a 4.10 factory setup diff. do they break, of course but ive never met anyone that has, nor seen broken 4.10s.

[lilbuddy]

I broke a set of stock toyota 4.10s, diff was never touched... Chipped 3 teeth off the ring

[ToYocRawleR]

my buddy stripped about 2/3s of the teeth off his 4.10 ring gear

Yeah thats how I feel I have seen countless and experience countless 529's break but never a stock 410 gear set or a 488 gear set blow up.

[NoPower]

Wow your pics were GREAT. Looks like a real fun trail

[usmc4runner]

Man those are some sick pics!!! Id love to get that chance!

[Dingman.]

Yeah thats how I feel I have seen countless and experience countless 529's break but never a stock 410 gear set or a 488 gear set blow up.

Yea but there are other factors to consider as well..  You would think that all of the stock 4.10s were set up PERFECTLY from toyota..  Who was the one setting up the 5.29's? 

It may be a factor of not being setup correct, not being broken in correct, etc...

Also it could just be, we all run 5.29's it seems like, i don't know too many people running 4.10's anymore.

[Jud]

4.88's blow up just as much as 5.29's. theres sooo many factors in this bull crap. tires, tire size, tcase gears ratio, driving style, setup, break in, lockers, brand, all metals are NOT created equal (idk what people say), theres just soo many factors. You run two 4.70 cases, 4.10's, lockers, 40" tires your still gonna break them if you bind up or get it just right. I don't want any bs arguments back. this is how I feel about it and nobodys gonna change it so don't bother. Some people in this thread like to argue WAYYY too much. just shut your mouth and do your own research.

[lilbuddy]

Jud is pretty much right.

Mostly a gearset can be just as strong as any other if the setup and break in is titties.

still not as strong as a 1ton though

btw that runner with pinstripes is pimp

Hey   what is the supposed propper way to break in gears and what does breaking them in actually do??

Search dood

Drive 15-20 miles. Park it let them cool. Drive 500 and then change the oil.

damn, i never knew that.

i was going on my 3rd 4.88 diff before i put 1 tons under my truck.

[P-DiseToy24]

pretty much tons are the sickest and toy axles no matter what you do just will never be as stong...... I wish I had tons but with no $=no tons
