    Awesome! And shipped to my door in less then a day. I'm thinking of getting my front built as well. I thought about going with a hi9 but they only have 5.38s and i dont know if i want to be that different in the front from my 5.29s in the rear.

    You can run gears different as long as they're really close right? Would that be considered close enough? Glad to hear they're a solid business. I'll have to call them up and see how much it would be for what I want.

    People run that set up with no issues they don't make a 5.29 for a Dana 44 and at lot of Yota guys run it. I just don't feel that comfortable running it myself. The guys at Hi9 say there has been no issues with their customers rigs running 5.38's and 5.29's on a yota. If i would of known that Hi9 didn't make a 5.29 i would of gotten 5.38's in the rear but too late now my rear is built with 5.29's and I'm not changing it. I can get a nice solid low pinion set up from westcoast for about half the price of the Hi9 and have matching gears to boot!

    The high pinion was a headache for me for a while. Threw off my drive line angle, and I didn't have enough room on my arms to roll the axle, so I had to get a super high clearance TCase skid plate to lift it 3 inches. Then had to get a custom built rear drive line with a CV on it to handle the 19 degrees of angle because I kept burning out U-Joints.

    Built, definitely wasn't ever in a mood to snap.
