Would it be possible to swap a tundra 4.10 front third member into a 200 series and a 100 series rear third member with 4.10’s into the rear?
I’m trying to find a good way to get an arb locker in the rear and potentially gear down at the same time.
I’m running 32.9” tires and no heavy bumpers so 4.10‘s seem appropriate.
i’d consider just putting 4.10’s in my existing carriers, but I’m having trouble finding someone local that’s familiar with/has experience with arb lockers...so I may end up doing the locker install myself.
if I do it myself, though, my local code enforcement will likely hassle me about having my vehicle partially disassembled during the project (they got me while doing an axle job on an old 4wd a few years back).
being that I’ve never done a gearing/locker install, I figure I might be able to purchase third members with 4.10’s already installed and do the locker install at my leisure...then take a few hours installing the new third members into the 200. No worries with code enforcement and no rush on the arb install if I do it this way.
Upside to this also is should I ever decide to sell my vehicle, I can swap my 4.10 third members and locker out and bring the vehicle back to stock...and if I get good deals on the third members, I might be able to get them for less than the total costs of a set of 4.10 gears.
Any thoughts or advice on this course of action?
