Sucks with 4.56's? Are you an auto with 35's now or what? Or are you over-geared right now pulling high RPM's?

 

Which gear had to be switched and I thought 4.88's would be perfect even for the street

 

This gear:

Popped it out through the other side with the perfect prybar :]

Today was a pretty productive day too.
-Aquired new front diff drain plug($27?!?!)
-Completed alignment
-Stuck on the decal

 

Oh that doesn't look to bad to pull how long did it take you to complete

 

To do the gears? They were fairly quick. But I had a ton of other stuff to do too.

On Saturday I:
R&R front and rear differential + run air lines/electrical.
Both front wheel bearings +all 6 seals
All 4 uniballs
Clearance inner CV tulip

14 hrs straight.

 

Oh thats not too bad I want a lift but floor jack and 12 ton stands aint so bad I guess how long do the bearings last

 

Really depends. If you replace all the seals they last a while. I hope these last for this year. I'm not planning on wheeling locally as much as I did last year. Want these parts to last until through moab/rubicon.

 

How long do you get out of the hubs with 35's and how bad are the seals to replace, Im not used to IFS done a few hubs on my cherokees and my old 3/4 ton and wasnt bad but didnt have a seal

 

It depends on a lot of things. This is my first try with genuine toyota bearings. I desperately need new hubs.

 

I did mine at 45 or so, they turned out to be fine after looking at them but they were making some awful noise and I noticed the seals were chewed up when I swapped my clamshell. I even have it on video, rotor off... Anyway. I'm on 65 now and no problems.

Seals are easy, Just don't hit the face of the seal. Use a brass drift or something like that and tap it on. Go slow while pressing the bearing and rotate to make sure you're not binding. Pretty easy.

 

I'm a fawking pro at these bearings unfortunately. I'm the awesome bearing man. Accept it.

 

My 1st gen isn't even that high haha

 

I put on 50000 since I got it

Keep in mind that's only 124,200 miles

 

Still don't have that many miles haha I've only put on 11-12 k in 3 years.

Granted this is my drive train..no idea how many are on my body

 

Im almost at 9,500 miles the big 10k is around the corner

 

Spent more time with the truck tonight. First put wire loom on the entire length of my air lines,up to the engine bay coils.

Cleaned a bit of wiring, blah blah blah I'm tired.

took a pic.
