4.88 or 5.29?!

yes i sometimes go up the mountain pass and but I never do crawling or smash the gas pedal going up hills

 

5.29 all the way

 

Absolutely your torque will come back, and maybe even then some (especially if you go with 5.29).

 

Going 5.29’s I hear i will lose even more mpg’s lol

I just want my torque back and mpg’s

 

4.88 then

 

Then take lift off, weld cross member back in, and put stock tires back on. Can’t expect to lift, put bigger tires and put gears in a truck to achieve stock results.

 

Dood forget about mpgs. I was getting 14-15 on LT rated 32" Bridgestone Duelers. Those things only weighed around 52 lbs each.

With your lift and almost 34 inch tires you're doing pretty good at 15-16 mpgs

 

FWIW, I drove around with a lift but still on stock tires for several months... The lift by itself had almost no effect on MPG. It was when I put the tires on that I noticed a drop.

 

I supercharged and regeared my 2022 Tacoma with auto trans. It is running 285/70R17’s. The supercharger was awesome but the regear almost made as much of a difference. Hands down go with 5.29 is you have an auto. They are so under-geared from the factory. Run the numbers on a manual truck with 4.30s it’ll surprise you. 5.29s with the auto on a 33 is about the same as a manual with stock gearing.

 

That cut crossmember piece is long gone and no one is comfortable rewelding something to replace

 

Not many options for ya then.

 

I got somehow 15k in positive equity on the Tacoma

I could trade it in use 10k as a down and the 5k for new tires, wheels and canopy it’s just i would go up in Apr due to the garbage current rates around here.

not trying go up in payment

 

I doubt it once people realize you cut the frame of that truck...not many people are fans of drop bracket lifts...unless you live in Hawaii...then you will sell it instantly.

 

Was told so by my bank and my Toyota dealership down the road from me lol

has just 45k on it.
2019 TRD off road

 

Well the bank wont buy it. And if the dealer is offering you top dollar, I'd sell it and start over.

 

i know the bank wont buy it lol they are going off their vehicle value resources

 

Which doesn't take into account you cut the frame up.
