new parts? used? toyota? aftermarket replacement?

if you jsut got the truck and need to replace parts, they arent any mroe expensive than any otehr vehicle, probably cheaper actually as there are tons around, however that also drives demand, and with that sometimes is higher prices.. my local dealership can generally get me any part i need for my truck within a couple of days....

prices are sooo differnt between who you know and where you get the parts and what kind, brand, all sorts of stuff... stuff can even be differnt priced jsut becasue of where you live... there really is no way of giving you a set price otehr than going to a local parts store and looking stuff up their

Well you can get new CV Axles for around $100 bucks a piece. Those are really the only thing you will break, if you break anything of that sort. You will break other stuff before driveshafts and ur rear axle.

Well...

You can break your engine...

You can break your tranny...

You can break your transfercase...

You can break your diffs...

You can break your bumpers...

You can break your windows...

You can break your body...

You can break your tires...


Sorry, but I just had to do that. It kinda hard for us to tell you what your gonna break, just keep a few hundred in the bank and hope nothing serious happens.

I correct myself from my ealier post. You can break driveshafts. A friend of mine was trying to pull out a bronco from a ditch (with a ranger). And broke the rear u-joint on his front driveshaft and it smashed a hole in his transfercase. I doubt this will happen on a yota(of course), but its a possiblity.

well, you have an 85 on 31's......you wont break anything, that drive train holds up to abuse with 36" tires, it wont break a sweat with 31's
but you could take an extra birfield with you just in case
