    I need a new rear ujoint. I know moog seems to be the usual replacement but I see yukon ones for double the price. Think it's worth it? The yukons don't have a zero.

    I use the non-greasable Moog "high-strength" or whatever they market them as. No issues really for me

    19, 14, 9, 15, 17, 7.

    The pits are off limits as they have always been and from what I've been told, FWC put trail cams up in the pits because people can't read and comprehend a closed sign.

    Pretty sure the 1st Gen Tacoma 8.4 has the same bearing set up as the older Runner and HiLux axles. I know @allenfab has one.

    Yup, I've got one (cut in half axle housing). One thing I would recommend on your setup, is making it so all 4 of those studs can be bolted to the SST... I'd hate to see the threads on the two of them that are being used be stripped clean off.... as you probably already know, it take a lot of pressure to pop that bearing and collar loose

    Well y'all I'm on the hunt for a taco. The tundra just ain't right for me. Thinking a 16 or 17 TRDOR w the 6mt this time around.

    Finding one is a pain in the butt. Everything out there is auto. I've only found one so far that fits what I'm looking for and its in South Carolina. Trying to see what kind of deal I can work out.

    Not happy with the way the gas pedal and trans behaves. I think I got a dud. My buddy has a 16 and says it drives great. Plus I miss the taco. I thought I'd like the bigger truck but I don't.

    If you get a 3rd gen, gears and OVTune have to be on the list of mods.
