Not interested in building your own? Find whatever that desirable center is (a la flemco), DOM tubes, etc. Though it probbably wouldn't take much fabbing before $330 starts to look like a pretty sweet deal

I like the spidertrax or ballistic equally, but this is what I would really like if I was ballin' http://www.dirt-tech.com/tp_pro_seri...e_housings.htm
i like the ballistic
Spidertrax has free shipping till Christmas. $60 for Ballistic - and I would pay the extra $99 for the 3/8" drilled and tapped face.
i like the spidertrax. Odd question of the day, can you use the center section out of a Rockwell and put it in a housing similar to this?
avalanche made a sheetmetal housing with a 2.5t chunk for a while, wierd set-up though as it also had balljoint 60 outers.
So, I have a problem, looking for suggestions...
I want to run the TrueHi9 in the rear - so I don't have to worry about hitting the driveshaft, and can get rid of the CV. (Toyota output is high up)
I am currently running 4:10 gears with 37" tires but plan on runing ~42" tires in the future.
The TrueHi9 comes in 4.57, 4.86, 5.14, & 5.38
My Front Toyota High Pinion comes in 4.56, 4.88, & 5.29
Once I put the third member into the rear axle, I don't ever plan on taking it out again - so no temporary gear swap.
TrueHi9 doesn't reccomend the 5.38 / 5.29 combo but says that some customers say it works fine.
What do ya'll think? Just go for it? Don't worry about the ratio difference?
I'd go 4.88 and 4.86 give your front pinion a little more beef for 42"s
TrueHi9 says that the higher the ratio (for a high pinion), the stronger the gear set. They have a pretty big section on their website explaining why the reverse cut gears are stonger in the higher ratios rather than weaker.

I don't know if that applies the the Toyota stuff also, but from the theory they use, it should.
What is your crawl speed now and what is swapping to the 42"s going to do to it.
You will be gaining about 13% more speed when you upsize your combo meal like that. I know you have some pretty good gearing in it now, but without going lower will the bigger meats make enough of a difference to you?
my only problem right now is that I have to drive in 2wd Low to drive on the street for acceptable progress... - I'd like it to have a little more power in 2wd high... If I go to bigger tires, 2wd high will be completly out of the question.
This kids...is why 4cyl engines suck. :flipoff2:
Ide say 5.14, if strength is ever an issue look into cyro treating the gear set
sounds like you need a bigger motor
when i say bigger it, i mean at least bigger than your wifes :flipoff2:
