Delta's 2002 Tacoma 4WD Build and BS

they ride nicer anyways.

 

I've definitely noticed that...

Next up on the list is a regear... Do you happen to know if a 4.56 front diff out of a tacoma/4runner would bolt straight into this Tacoma? Thinking about buying the front diff and just having the rear one regeard...

 

Yeah long as it's a 95-04 Tacoma 95-02 4runner or 97-04 tundra it's the same diff.

 

Taking out my rear diff and having it regeared to 4.56 on Wednesday.

 

Going 2wd?

 

For a little

Going to be getting a front diff out of a 4cyl Tacoma or 4runner already geared to 4.56 so the front regear will technically be "free"

 

That is awesome. With a manual this will be a good choice on 33s.

 

I'm hoping I'll like it! Felt the weight increase with the new tires and starting from a stop has not been the most fun.

Wondering what my speedo will read after this regear, probably will change the speedo gear to correct it when I see how off it is.

 

Use a Dakota Digital better. It will get your Speedo more exact.

 

Interested to see how you like it. I may go 4.88s just to be a little over geared. But that's not for a while now

 

Hmmm, looks like a lot of work to install... I think depending on my speed after all this is done a 33 tooth gear should almost put me right on.

 

It seems complicated but it’s only 3 wires that you tap into. It’s just power, ground, and then intercepting the speed signal.

DD Wiring:
Ground to Blue
Power to Pink
Signal In to Green/Red (Factory taped up side)
Out 2 to Green/Red (harness side)

I have pics in my build thread you can check out as well.l if you’re interested.

 

Got the 3rd out. Waiting for it to come back to me now.

 

4.56 ready to go in. Won't be able to install until Wednesday... Need to still get a gasket for it also.

 

How’d you get them so fast? Did you just order the gears or a whole new 3rd memeber?

 

ZUK lives about a mile from be so just dropped off my diff on Thursday morning and picked it up today at 4! A little sad I couldn't get around to installing it today because I really want to see what difference it makes haha

 

Got the rear diff with 4.56 in, and also did the diff breather with it...

 

Hows it feel to have some power back. Of all the mods I have done to my rig, regearing is still the best one.

 

It does feel much better! Still holding back on the power but i can already tell a nice difference. Cant wait until the break in process is done!

 

Hey sweet looking truck!
I'm thinking the same Predator front and wrap around rear that you've got, great taste in armor!!
