    Hey guys! This is my 2008 RWD Tacoma on a 12-inch lift, 24x14s, and 40x15.50s. I am finally ready to regear this truck before I break something. Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of gears.

    I know the brand I want to go with, but I'm not sure what ratio I need. Any suggestions? IMG_5723.jpgIMG_7121.jpg IMG_7116.jpgIMG_6284.jpg

    5.29 is the lowest you can go. With 40s, I’d suggest a larger axle such as a Dana 60 and get some 5.38s.
