    Yeah same stuff, only down side to the huge tundra new stuff is its 5 lug. Have you ever considered a stock oem 4:56? Out of a older taco . My cousin and I buy oem gear ratios diffs from okder trucks instead of aftermarket gears and install pricing and they work great.

    First time it was due to a pinion seal leak this time I don’t even know how I haven’t taken it out since April, taking it to a shop later today to see what might have caused it. Ill Most likely just have them fix it.

    Ok thanks I’ll keep that in mind probably going to stick with my stock rear axle for now.

    Sounds like bad luck. Hopefully they can figure it out once they take it apart. Do you have a locker or lsd?

    Ah alright - the first gen Tundras only came with the same diff as the non-locking 2nd gen Tacomas. There is a difference between your diff and those, but it sounds like your problems aren't caused by strength of the diff. Usually you'd feel and hear a diff break when it's a strength failure...

    I've seen different spring setups for sure. Do you need spring seats - I have extras but they're flat king ones.
