    Yes! I'm trying to save for 4.56 years also. Glad you're in! Still haven't wheeled with ya, but from what I heard you'll be unstoppable with a locker and 4.56! Don't tell Ferny and we'll still do that "open/open" trip :cool:

    I've never driven 4.56 in a Tacoma, but I think it'd be great. I have noticeable power loss from stock, and would love to get it back and then some. With lift, ifs skid, sliders, full size spare, tonneau etc I stopped worrying about mpgs long ago. Bring on 4.56! Just don't tell wifey :spy:

    I would also like a front locker but I need some help determining what version I need
    $1,114 RD121 Air Locking Differential
    RD121 or RD111? I was told a 4.11 gearing would be ideal but it seems like 4.56 or 4.88 are my only options.

    Also, the Nitro 4.56 Thick gearing seems to fit the RD121 even though it is described as for 3.73 and down. Seems counter-intuitive. :notsure: Any suggestions? Should I just go with the RD121 and Nitro 4.56 Thick gearing?

    I have an 08 acces cab v6 4x4 AT with ARB bumper/winch, OME (heavy) suspension kit, planning on putting on pelfrybilt steel skids (IFS, Mid, Transfer, gas tank) and fab fours rear bumper. 265/75/16 on stock rims currently (not planning on going to a larger tire in the near future)

    I will be doing a good amount of wheeling but I also have to drive like an hour to get to any good trails so I don't want the gearing to be too tall but I would like some increased low-end power/torque

    I spoke with someone at Ecgs and they told me the front rd111 is what you want for 4.56's but 4.88's will not work for rd111 I'm still not clear on what to get. I might just do the back for now. Idk yet

    I recommend build threads, find people that have the gears you want and ask what locker. I have the
    $1,114 RD121 Air Locking Differential
    RD121, it works with thick 4.56 and 4.88. It is impossible to find the gears that fit the RD111, no one makes them anymore. I called ECGS 2 times in a day and they gave me a different answer each time. I made the mistake and ordered the 111 first and was lucky the company I ended up getting it from took it back at no charge and got me the right one.

    CC won't be an issue to my knowledge. Send me a PM for pricing if you are in or not. Then post back here so I can add to the list.
