from what ive read i have to upgrade to a 30spline axle, is there any other option, looking for the cheap way out

you do not need to upgrade your axles stock birfields or stock rear axles have the same spline count

It is a good idea, but not necessary.

so why do they make 27spline axles? im confused

27 is the count on the stock inners of the birfs... aftermarket is 30 to be stronger

red450r · « **Reply #5 on:** Dec 12, 2010, 11:25:06 AM »

so the factory is 30spline at the 3rd member then 27 at the birf?

Ran into another problem, Dude finished setting up my third last night, he said the pattern looked nasty. He said the pinion needed to go in another thousandth of an inch, but when he shimmed it, it hit the carrier and locked it up. His next question to me was are you sure you ordered the correct bearings. So this is what i ordered, yukon gears for a v6 in 5.29 ratio, install kit part number YK TACOMA-LOC, and the third is out of an 05 Tacoma, any ideas guys?
