    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.

    Yep in a solid axle :D but I don't know if I'll be starting the swap by then it all depends on how much money I get for my boat I'm selling.

    Calendar doesn't work for me, sorry.

    I haven't been on that trail. Certainly saw the need for sliders - but that JK banged its rear bumper stepping off that obstacle. Seems a tacoma's gonna need a full high clearance rear bumper to avoid rear fender damage behind the rear wheel?

    Yeah if your talking about 2:30 of the first video that JK is low even with our ass end being longer I think with a 3"lift and 33's and maybe a small stack of rocks that ledge can be done without rear armor.

    Yeah I'm keeping it on the small side so I'm not going with a 60 I'm thinking of getting the Trail Gear kit B and a Ruff Stuff Toyota 8" housing with 35's.

    Yeah I think it would be plenty strong enough for what I'm going to be doing.

    Well that's just the housing to complete the axle it would be about 2500 to 3000 bucks with a complete 3rd with a ARB locker and chromoly axle shafts.

    Yeah I know, but it still seems like a decent price, since I was comparing it to the Diamond which is brought up below.

    So that's what you have in the works.

    Yeah I was looking into Diamonds as well the big selling point for me is the lower price of the Ruff Stuff and i can just go and pick it up there about an hour from my house. Ruff Stuff makes some pretty stout shit so I'm confidant that there housings are strong.

    But I'm considering this as well.
