I havent broke TG parts I break lockers and ring/pinions. I could care either I've run TG and MC have yet to break a case but I dont run 39" stickies or 42" tires. I have the sense to know I will break a tranny or case. Thats 1 ton territory without toyota drivetrain. Love my Longs and TG and MC duals hate my 5.29 gears. Call me an idiot because idk 4340 from 300m because I dont research for hours about stuff that doesn't effect me. Theres my $.02 rant over. Glad DHR understands. And btw Darren will u be at swap meet ill just get you your money for truck parts then and save the trip.

You want to go way back in the day? When chris geiger worked for Marlin as the operations manager he very nearly shut Marlin down. He conned Marlin into joining forces with matt messer then as they were moving Marlin product into matt's warehouse geiger jumped ship and convinced matt to go it without Marlin since he already had most of Marlins designs. 6 shooters were designed by Marlin, I have a picture geiger posted on Marlins board of the steering arm mounted backwards over the ears for the caliper. The "creaper locks" design was decided on in a poll on the site too.

I remember wen all that went down.

geigers screen name was changed to marketing after he was canned/quit etc. Here's the thread with the picture of the knuckle.

And the wheels. I was wrong, there was no poll but the decision was still made by committee more or less.

TG samurai TC gears suck compared to the other companies as well. Sure a life time warranty but it usually ruins other things inside and under normal conditions have been known to fail.

I don't own a yota..... But I'll throw this out in their defense. I do own a jeep. All of its non jeep parts perform flawlessly, the rest is either rotting off, falling off, or not working at all.:fawkdancesmiley::beer:

I wonder if the same holds true for the big brother fj80 birf?

lilyota · Mar 3, 2014

You got me searching to make myself smarter if possible, found this. there are not the same. 300m does not have carbon, from what I believe the carbon is what makes steel weaker. I could be wrong. I was wrong once but wrong about that.

Alloy Steel 300M VAR is similar to 4340 with the addition of vanadium and a higher silicon content. Alloy 300M offers a combination of toughness and ductility at high strength levels without an increased carbon content. Alloy 300M VAR is Vacuum arc-remelted for excellent purity. 300M can also be supplied dual certified to the British aerospace standard BS 5155.

And the British will use it!
