An SR5 should be able to use OE SR MT gears. Going from the 3.583 gears to 4.3 is 20%. Not sure if it's been done, or if the parts are even available.

Would you say that there's plenty of clearance on the inside for a 275/60 or even 285/60?

I agree 100%. I pull a Jayco 213X (also rear slide) and the tongue weight is WAY more than 10%. I really like my Camco EazLift TR3. Huge upgrade over the Husky hitch that came with the camper.

That's by far the most logical answer I've seen. The remaining question is if the RAWR is limited by the tires, the springs, or the axle itself. on my old Tundra, the RAWR was exactly twice the tire load rating.

275/70R18 is a completely standard half-ton size and should corner just fine. Have you played with the inflation at all?

THAT! What you're describing is a lack of circulation, and the culprit has to be the fan, if the problem doesn't present at road speeds. Get it checked.

Up here (in the Great Lakes) we run stuff in part time 4wd ,at freeway speeds, all winter long. Nothing to worry about. Where your son might be headed in dad's Tacoma in 4wd is another matter.

Definitely interested in towing experiences and MPG, especially from those with a 4-5000lb camper. Maybe by the end of this camping season we can collect info. Also curious if the iForceMax users have run their AC on the inverter.

Sounds like it works just like you wanted. Any reason you didn't get Dobbinson front springs, like you have in the rear?

Congrats on locating useful springs. And on a great looking build. Tundra guys have been using LC300 springs, too, so it would stand to reason that Tundra coils fit the Tacoma as well.

I would probably just drive the truck w/o a tailgate until parts come in. Or this: 2024 2025 Toyota Tacoma Tailgate | eBay

Hopefully they avail the Extra Cab to a few more trims, especially as a (minimally different) TRD OR and a TH, especially with big-ass leaf packs and high GVW. Of course, this doesn't help anyone with their fancy seats. 2nd row platform instead of seats would at least be useful.

Sounds like you have your answer. Shame though, that they didn't integrate something with a fixed panel under the bar.

Fairly sure the axles are built at Hino. That plant was announced to be closing in a few years. Fluid would get filled during assembly in Mexico.

the OR is a little taller up front and obviously has a different rear suspension from the SR. SR/SR5 tread width is also 1cm narrower, the base wheel off-set is probably 5mm greater.

Even though the Tacoma is built in Mexico and the LC in Japan, the hybrid systems use many of the same parts, along with the Tundra and Sequoia. There can simply be total parts availability limitations. I think they’ll launch the Pro and TH on time, but might limit numbers even more and the...

Possible issues (in my tiny mind): CV had a manufacturing/assembly defect? CV was the incorrect part (possible there are multiple CV parts for different trims?) Center axle disconnect wasn’t engaged fully (due to a burr on something) ? Failure was actually in the t-case? I seriously doubt...

The refusal to fix the rear leg room has it off my list. Everything else looks great. I think I’m moving on to a 250 series Landcruiser or GX.

Not sure. The few SR reviews and dealer stock picks have had aluminum wheels- unless they’re convincing hubcaps.
