    What do I benefit from lying to you? Nothing. Don’t get over your head :)

    Since ya’ll can’t do math and forget we’re all on the same team, 15+ rigs over three years is not much. At all.

    The benefit is always trying to establish credibility.

    All I know is that’s a lot of trucks to ask to go drive. I don’t think I even know that many regeared Tacoma’s. Then to have them all howl?

    Anyways I don’t think we will make much progress on that front so we probably all just have to agree to disagree

    I wish my tires were quiet enough to hear if my gears whine.

    That is my experience senor, you may have an alternate experience...and thats okay brother :) I never said ALL Nitros on everyones truck will whine. Thats where paying attention to words is important. Maybe instead of being defensive, you can be helpful! That’s always nice right? Im betting you have Nitro as you can’t fathom my reportings - If you got experience with different diff fluids, I’d love to hear! I arranged a groupbuy of over 80 people to get regeared and most of us are on Lucas Oil 85w-140, a thicker, non-synthetic oil. What do you run?

    @Silverlogic you’re local to me. if you come through OC, send me a message and you can take the truck for a spin and see what I’m talking about. I have enough camper and tire noise to know its loud when my gears are the overpowering sound.

    That would be an interesting experiment, since I have nitro gears installed by the same shop that did yours(as part of the group buy) and I'm running the same diff fluid.

    Why quote me when several other said the same thing.

    Why are you taking what I said and spinning it into something completely different?

    Why perpetuate a discussion that clearly ended in agreeing to disagree.

    Do you just like drama?

    Whatever man, keep digging your hole.

    You’re only confusing yourself brotha, I was just clearing up your misquoted statements. Anywho, we’ll agree to disagree on my experience :hattip: I’m not here to complain...I’m here to fix the problem.

    If any other people who want to actually be helpful by chiming in on what gear oils you use, let me know!

    No man, we are all just calling you out on your 15+ claim. The quotes come directly from TW.

    Perhaps it's best if you moved on from this thread and started your own, maybe create a poll.

    Why are you such a DICK!
    Every thread I start reading you're talking shit about their questions. Get a life fool!
    Why don't you find another forum.

    Where else would you learn such awesome info on 5.29s. TW does have an ignore feature you are welcome to utilize it.

    And for the record I spend most of my time ANSWERING questions.

    15+ regeared trucks in 3+ years? I put on a regear for 80+ people brother. I get DM’s to this date about gear installs haha. If you pass through socal ever let me know :)

    Since this is your thread that you created, I will respect your request :thumbsup: Don’t be a douche though. Just my $0.02 as someone who wants to spread positivity vs. negativity, take it however you’d like. Not everyone is lying to you in the world; I’m not the government.

    Definitely but I recommend creating a poll. You'll get better results I think.

    EDIT: Actually I'll just add it here. It's on the first page.
