Installed 4.88 Gears in my 2016

crispy77 and 2016 Tacoma sr thank you the hills up here in highpoint nj are a pain in the a@@ do 100 miles a day to and from work doing it all at one time so im not hating my truck don't want to do piece by piece thanks for the help

 

thanks for the input guys

 

This was at highpoint around 3pm today...!

 

Truck looks great dude

 

Did they tell you about break in for the gears?
You should be driving 15-25 miles, hot and cold cycles. To harden gears.

 

Yes, have been doing the break in

 

285/70/17?

I know you have Kings in the front, what did you do in the rear?

 

Kings front & rear with Icon AAL's. Yes 285/70/17

 

awesome crispy77 got a Tacoma world neighbor got to get my ride done get back in the trails again maybe we can hook up I live by elias cole restarant

 

Good looking taco.....nice yellow on the fogs !!!

 

So this came in today... 2 mini kits for the 8.75, but at least the gears were right. Contacted Drew at http://www.Justdifferentials.com and he took care of it. He already shipped out the right mini kit for the 8" front, just have to wait a lil longer.

 

I got a about 12500 mi. Close enough for the mini kit?

 

I wouldn't chance it. It's close but with gears close is the difference between years of joy and years of headaches.

 

Its really close. It will boil down to whos installing them! Either way Hit me up for the best deal on the gears I have them in stock and ready to ship, at the best prices! Just mention Tacoma World ! https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/cyber-week-specials.462796/

 

I'll have mine done about 5000 miles and I'll still be using a master kit. Why chance it? Do it once, do it right.

 

Excuse my ignorance, but is the humming or whining people get due to improper installation or adjustment? I take a proficient mechanic can address this?

 

Gears installed properly will be as quiet as stock. It's all about who installs them.

 

Alright so am I reading if I am going to 285/70/17s on AT sport I need 4.88?? I was confident 4.10s would do the trick..

 

3.90 to 4.10 is pointless, you won't even notice it. Or 6 speed auto's have 2 overdrive gears, 5th and 6th. 6th is something like .53-1 ratio, not 1-1 like most. 4.88 is the only worth while option. Mine will be going in this winter along with some other goodies.

 

What about those 4.30s or 4.56s? I feel like 4.88s will increase rpms way too much, again, I havent put the tires on yet.
