Old Toyota's, Power Wagon, and a Tacoma

Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.

What is up guys? I have been busy, and not on here for awhile.

So, I have been thinking.. I would like to BS about Toyota axle options.

What do you all know?

9.5's
8's (and 8.4)
8.75's
Even the Tundy 10.5

I have some concern, in the future of popping my rear gears if I stay with my stock E-locker in the 2015.

Has anyone swapped a 3rd gen rear into a 2nd gen yet? Is it better like Toyota says?

How does the 8.75 stack up to the older 8? Has anyone broken one yet?

I also have an 2017 TRD Offroad. And a number of 1979-2017 Toyotas.
