    You don't want lower uniballs anyways.

    If you wheel, especially in mud, they'll last a season, and at that point you'll never save any money.

    Just keep an eye on your LBJS and replace as needed.

    I got 2.5 seasons out of my upper uniballs before they had some play and were squeaking. Maybe 25k miles

    YMMV

    hmmm! Thanks Brett. I should have replaced those fuckers when I did the UCA bushings a few weeks ago. I didn't have any squeaking until after that install. I cleaned them up really well. They immediately squeaked. Lubed them up and they are tame again.

    well, I guess I will stick to OEM....those uniballs looked sexy

    So...

    Does anyone know if 4.30 gears were common in 1st gen Tacoma’s? I heard they were only available in non-TRD, prerunner, turbo V8, AWD, 5 speed, double cabs. Except they weren’t allowed in Cali because they cause cancer.

    That's a good priced shipped. Anything under $5 shipped is a good price.

    I was lucky & bought mine when there was a sale going on for the filters plus a 10% sale. I got mine for $2.70 ea not including shipping. I was already ordering a bunch of parts so the the filters only added on a few bucks for shipping to my order.
