Woohoo, New 4.88's and New Clutch came in Today
Well most of it anyway, the Yukon 4.88 front gears are on backorder, arrgghh 
. I received the rear Yukon 4.88's, Yukon install kit for the rear, and Yukon install kit for the front (is the front reverse rotation?), and the Marlin Clutch. Hopefully I will have it on in the next 2-3 weeks, it will definitely be on for the Southeast ride in May at Tellico.
Anyone have any suggestions on stuff to look out for when installing the gears? I will not be doing that myself, rather someone here that has done it before.

Make sure they have more than just experience with one or two and that they have some Toyota experience...you don't want that getting fubared for sure.
Good luck

I will be chancing the gear install a little, he has done many Toyota's, just not any 3rd gen 4Runners or Tacoma's.

Great. Marlin called today and my front gears are on the way, they will be here next week!

For sale-one of 2 ways, 4.30 rear ring and pinion-remember electric locker though and 4.30 front ring and pinion, or 4.30 rear ring and pinion and complete front 4.30 diff. PM me if you're seriously interested. Will need to know by next Wednesday though if you want the whole diff.
