Dont spend money for a locker in the rear unless its an arb or e-locker... Weld the rear, put an arb in the front, long's, buy those tires, 63's rear, and some lift for the front :awesomework:
I think I'll get a spool for the rear instead of welding since they arent very expensive and I wont have to buy another set of gears if I ever do decide to put an ARB in back.
the 39's are on portland craigslist. search for irok or iroks.

Do you,jake, suddenly know everything there is to know about what to run, and not to run?
Best bang for the buck is welding, but you can't turn back if you go something different...A spool allows just that, not to mention most of the investment in buying a spool can be recovered once $ allows for a selectable:awesomework: ....Most peeps can't give away a carrier once it's been welded, due to people's skepticism about the quality of the weld job...thats exactly why I'm going with a spool. I want to be able to reuse the same gears out back when I do upgrade to a locker.
now my next question. Is a trail gear spool going to work ok or do I need to spend the extra 40 bucks and get one from marlin?

Did i ever state that i knew anything... no, it was just an idea and judging from your response of saying "Best bang for the buck is welding" i dont think it was that bad of an idea. He stated a budget, i gave him my 2 cents. Your correct a spool is a more versatile, safe, and cost effective decision in the end.
But since when do people think about the long term

TG spools seem to be fine; I personally don't have one, but have friends who do...

Spools bend... If a open carrier is welded right it won't warp and it'll be stronger. I run 42's and 5.29's and i've had great luck with my junk not breaking....
dont waste yer money on the creepy crawlers, they suck in mud and snow, iroks or tsl's around here

I have never broke a spool in a toyota, although I have cracked stock carriers that were welded, I have also broke stock carriers break in half. I have never seen a spool bend.:redneck:

Search PB there are a handfull of yota spools that have bent. One of which was a buddies so yea, I have seen them bend. And that's great that you've damaged stock welded carriers. next time do it right and you won't have that issue.

I did do it right, I replaced the stock CAST carrier with a billet spool, I guess if you believe a cast piece is stronger more power too ya. If the spool bent the cast carrier would have split. I have not broke a ring and pinion since running a spool. I am not saying they can't be welded and work fine, I ran one for a # of years with good results. I think I'll go with using what a handfull on PBB users have broke rather tan the thousands of broken stockers out there. The one who welded my stock carrier knows metallurgy very well and you prob. have his axles in the front of your toyota.:;

Actually I only have his birfs.. The stock inners hold up to my pansy driving better than the poly perf POS CroMo shafts I used to run...
how's this, you can keep buying spools and the rest of us will keep burning metal and we'll all go wheeling. Sounds good to me.

thats what i was thinking but I came across this

I'm still going to go with 5.29's though since I got 37's and plan on going to 36's when I can afford new tires.
