    I thought Sports retained the 8" standard rotation ring gear which has gears available to 5.71, however I think you still run the 8" reverse IFS clamshell up front which only goes to 5.29

    LOL, I’ve regularly have those days, I have less than 6 months until retirement and the start of the big trip. I have the same truck as you, a 2019 TRD Sport with manual transmission and I have put in 5.29s on and they work fine. The whole reason why I bought the Sport was because it has the 8.75” rear differential taken from the Hilux, supposed to have a 2,000 lb rating. I believe the stock ratio is 4.30

    Nailed it. Yeah me too - I got derailed earlier when I thought the MT had the 4.88 ratio gears and I somehow thought my code was A or 406A (WTH??) when it's B06A as I noted above.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!

    Agreed new to the masses but I have yet to hear anything bad. Hopefully growing pains haven't done them dirty

    I'm not sure how hard you go in the paint, but I am torn between the bilstein 6112/5160 and just saying to hell with it and go full on with ads.

    Ya know while it is up on a lift maybe slap some new goodies on it all at once. Save time and money...

    I didn't see your truck :)sadface:) . But the shop was really cool. I am paying some serious dollars for 5.29, air lockers on both. Larger compressor, labor, extras, plus the will install my other parts and switches as well. All at the end of December.

    Nice. I'll trade you my truck mod bill but i get to keep my truck! They're good people and do good work just make sure they have plenty of time to test things before you pick up the truck.
