This subject has been covered. And I think you are getting your story mixed up with 5.71's.. 5.29's (&5.71's for that matter) have proven reliable (based on a set up done by someone with the correct skill yet) for years....


Don't be surprised if this thread goes poof.

5.29s are extremely reliable. 5.71s are a bit eh, but still can be proven reliable. toyotas dont generally have running gear issues unless you've put fat tires on an axle that isnt built for it.

hes right, a search would have shown this. But since I'm here read my sig to see my build. Only thing I've broken with that much power are transmissions. The gears are fine.

I have two Yotas, 82 and 86, both 5.29's one on 35's other on 38's. They are both fine.
