Don't do that....I'm too broke to be under your roll.
Casually re-holsters the gold needles and saunters off towards the saloon..........
Always pickin on the little guy, I'll remember your dogs...
Kevin, you got it right, as long as it set up right. I think that is what I was getting at to begin with. I am not looking at what is "internet knowledge" but common knowledge. Set it up right from the begining and you should be fine. Just do your homework b4 you buy and see what works for what you want your truck to do.
And you may be under it...............
nothing under that roll cept sweat and lint.

Here's some interesting info about gears, although mini truck based:

I'm thinking that people think 4.10s are strong and 5.XX are weak because Toyota techs know how to set up gears, and greasy guys missing teeth who say they know, most of the time don't........

Thanks Jerod, I stand corrected. Very cool post thanks.
interesting thing is that works out to 34" diameter, which I think more 315's are closer to that than 35's.
Hummm.... I was searching for the OD ratio earlier and found .765.... I'll believe your # instead though
this doesn't compute for me, anyone else?
I got ~2100 RPM

Just picked up my third members from Taylor Axel Works in placerville went with the 488 and ARB air lockers.
Very much looking forward to experiencing my 80 with this gear set and 35s.
The scope of this project also includes stripping the axles down to bare metal and refreshing everything.
Special thanks to
Taylor Axle Works in Placerville
@cruiseroutfit has also been great for my axle kits, koyo bearings, and new Birfs.
@NLXTACY ordered that sweet factory locker switch ARB integration kit, looking forward to working this baby up !!!
I'll report back on the experience and thoughts on the 4:88 setup.

They were built with
*Factory seals
*Koyo Bearings
*ARB air lockers
*CSA Japanese "circle K" gears/pinon
Are they noisy at all or quiet as the stock gears
talk about bringing a post back from the dead.
Congrats on the lockers and gears @BillyGoatMTB

Some of the best conversations come from Old School long-term 80 series owners.
I bumped a bunch of really old posts

I haven't installed them yet but I'll report back once they're in. I can't imagine they'd be whiny, is this a thing you've heard about?
Iv installed nitro gears and all new bearings and it was noisy so i changet to another brand motive gears and they were better but you notice a little bit of a wine . Thinking about going back to standard gears now as i really dont want to keep buying diffrent gears
