This man knew his stuff.. This is the content I was looking for. New Tacoma owner and purchased a 2020 TRDOR with 33s with the ironman nitro stage 2 lift and was wondering about the gear ratio.. I'm planning on adding more weight from the bumpers to slide plates.. so this vid really helped me choose the hear ratio.

@erichouston8247 4 года назад

From what I am hearing here, and the other videos is that it's 5.29's all the way. Regardless of tire size or weight. The tech has made a point of metioning the new trucks ( 2016+) love the higher revs and you might as well go with the 5.29s. I have a 2020, with no real intention on going real heavy in mods, just a cap and potentialy a rooftop tent. No one has definitively said this so it would be great if someone just said straight up. All he is saying is regearing is needed from stock.

@denttech2515 3 года назад

TO PUT IT SIMPLE: the regearing actually makes use of the 6 speed transmission. 6th gear is useless without a regear. The engine can handle it no problem. It's the transmission and differential that can't handle the engine efficiently

@kikorubio5996 4 года назад

It's so true im at 19-24 mpg in my trd off road manual, all stock by the way.

@ryantheoutdoorsmen2536 Месяц назад

I'm curious to see how the 5.29s work in the manual. I ordered a manual and love the truck just needs better gearing for crawling, it gets awesome gas mileage I was getting 25 mpg just cruising down the highway at 65.

Why yall standing outside in the cold, you forget the keycode? Very Good info though 👍

@marcochavanne 3 года назад

I ran 5.29s in my 98 4Runner, 4.88s in my LX450, and 5.29s in my 100 series Land Cruiser. All of them ran the exact same set of tires. I preferred 5.29s with the 35”s. They give a lot more control off road, power in the city, and the engine is barely working on the highway. Mileage was great with 5.29s. My GX460 will only have 33”s. A lot of people say I need 4.56 gears but I’m probably going with 4.88s based on my past experience. At 70mph it will sit at 2,000rpm which is not bad at all. The engine will be happy and it will hunt gears much less.

@electric_boogaloo496 4 года назад

I have a manual 2017 TRD sport manual. Manual is geared about right, i just wish the 6th was geared a little taller. There is a 1-2 MPG difference between 70 MPH and 80 MPH on the highway. 80 in 6th is about 2800 rpm, and MPG takes a bit hit.

For a second generation Tacoma what would be the best re-gear on 33 or 35 inch tires?

@ramblerclassicman221 4 года назад

Had a 93 t100 4wd for a while. Damn thing had 4.70 ratio stock rear end. Couldn’t drive it on the interstate hardly running 29 inch tires. Even that low of a ratio that truck was gutless. You are right about power and rpm being different. The 3.0 had no power; 4.70s just give a better crawl ratio.

@tedheath2326 2 года назад

When I was running 37"s on my TJ .....with Dynatrac Pro Rock 60's front and rear (Detroit lockers front and rear) I was runnig 5:13s ....... and they were great ......... for 33"s for example, I think the best gear is 4:10 ...... for 35"s , best gear is 4:56 for 37"s either 4:88 or 5:13 .......... this gearing will provide best power and fuel economy ............. .well thats my take on it anyway

@aarontarlton5873 5 лет назад

To R and R, regear both Diffs, shim the pinion gears properly, reassemble, add oil and test it’s a 12-15 hour job. Depends on the Shop and where you buy the gears but a pretty safe estimate could be $1500 for the Nitro gear sets and $1500 labor. It’s a big job.

@cliffellrich6663 5 лет назад

Yup this is the big issue. Cost is insane to do this

@aarontarlton5873 5 лет назад

All I know is what Just Differentisls in Washington State recommends. They are the Nitro gear wizards and it’s 60% of what they do everyday. I bought Nitro 5.29 gears for mine, had them swapped out by a 4x4 Shop here in Austin, Round2 OffRoad. Cost about $1400 and took them all day and into evening to do it right. My truck runs great and I don’t have to put my foot in it all the time for it to get out of its own way. Carl the owner at Just Differentials has a 2019 Taco he just re-geared and has videos on that. They know their stuff and are good about responding. Gears and labor if you farm it out is about $3k. Not cheap, I get it...

@robertusagawa9885 4 года назад

Interesting to watch this video. My 2016 Tacoma 4dr V6 4x2 has stock everything. I added only a pipe rack, tonneau cover, and running boards. I would like better performance driving uphills. Currently driving at 60-65 mph my engine is reading 4200-4300 rpm. What would be the best new gear size to improve the perfordmance. I recently rode a 2017 Tacoma (same everything as my tacoma) except it was a 4x2 Sport. Traveling at 60-65 mph, it's rpm was approximately 3000 rpm +/-.

of course it will void warranty, it's not factory installed through Toyota and is considered aftermarket tinkering, if anything happened to the engine or suspension that would normally be covered by warranty, it now would no longer be covered as they would toss you the blame for touching the diff.

Greetings TachomaBeast: I drive a 1989 Toyota Hilux 4wd with 5-speed manual trans. Here in the island of Tinian, Marianas Islands, western pacific, most of the dirt here is deep, soft sand and our secondary roads have crater sized potholes. So, I really need to up my tire size up to 33 or 35. But I know that I must first lower the gear ratio. All of the videos I have seen change the ring gears in both front & rear diffs to get the ratio reduction. None I have seen put reduction gears into the transmission final drive. Why is that?

We need more content like this. We also need content for those manual, 3rd gen Tacoma’s.

@01tonka87 4 года назад

Need your help my local shop is saying I should go with 4.10 gears. I am running 20x12 on 33” tire. What do you think.

@cullennowell7813 3 года назад

Go somewhere else. They don't know yotas.

@everythingflytv507 2 года назад

How much did this cost with labor?

@tacomabeast 2 года назад

The gears go for around 1500 plus around 1000 average for labor 🤙

@everythingflytv507 2 года назад

@@tacomabeast Awesome! Thank you for that information man. Someone in the comments made a comment about wait til you find out how much it costs. 2500 is actually pretty cheap compared to everything else that people do to their Tacoma's.

@adriandiaz6780 5 лет назад

I’m definitely getting the 5.29’s

@kevinclaire3371 4 года назад

Can you still run the 5.29s with the TRD factory rear locker?

@brandonmariano3707 5 лет назад

With stock tire size on a Tacoma, what kind of RPM’s will I get @ 60 mph and 70 mph with 5.29 gears? I’m planning on re gearing before I put on bigger tires, but I’m also worried because I don’t know if it will be okay running 5.29 gears with stock tires for an extended period of time. (Just because I don’t know when I’ll get my new tires)

@BigRobskitchen 4 года назад

2000-2500 rpms 60-70, 2500-2700 70-80 mph. All approximately.

@USMC7178 3 года назад

As soon as 95% of you hear what this costs you’ll learn to love your 3.90’s!

@cullennowell7813 3 года назад

It's not that bad if you do it yourself.

@commonintel 3 года назад

if you bought a 45k tacoma, u can afford 1800-2000 for a regear

@StormRoxas 3 года назад

Hahaha I only added about 120lbs after a solid tune and I can already feel the sluggishness. Ordered my gears (5.29) and can't wait to throw them on. It's my truck, so adding things to keep it solid+ 2k is not that bad

@pch-395 5 лет назад

Excellent explanation of how Tacomas are geared way too tall, especially on the automatics.

@BetaRacer24 4 года назад

No way, the manual is over geared, except reverse is undergeared bigtime

@sekekamawow5386 4 года назад

Paying 40k for a new truck only to pay more money to get it to drive correctly? I’ll wait until Toyota decides to re gear it themselves at the factory in a few more years... id be pissed if I bought a Tacoma and this was my outcome

It really is ridiculous! Definitely returning mine when lease is up.

So if i dont plan on building a huge rig.. 5.29s are still the way to go?

@BlueSTI 5 месяцев назад

So 5.29s are the best for a 3rd gen

@Jerlemi2 2 года назад

Glad I stumbled onto this video. Makes perfect sense why my 2019 tacoma can never stay in OD on the highway. It’s the only vehicle I’ve ever owned that gets worse mpg on the hwy than in town. I’m definitely gonna get it regeared.

@jcunningham2rcr 2 года назад

Just got a 2021 trd off road and was telling my buddy today that I get better mileage in the city than highway. Couldn't figure it out, seems like 60-70 kmph is the sweet spot for economy so far

@OverlandUncharted 5 лет назад

If you have a 3rd gen Tacoma 5.29s are the only way to go! I’m running 285/70R17 BFG KM3 tires. No more driving around in 4th gear, no more hunting for gears, it’s a totally different truck. I highly recommend 5.29s. $1000 for labor and around $1260 for the gears. I went ahead and had a ARB front locker installed for no additional labor cost but I had the arb air compressor already installed. Just had to pay for the front locker.
