Ok so rear pinion points up and you used a CV joint up top?

xtra cab and double cab tacomas have a carrier bearing about 2ft in back of the Tcase, then a CV Shaft behind that. We point the pinion at the carrier bearing, not the Tcase.

Frenchy came back in for dual cases, new drivelines, our HD sliders, and some electrical add ons.

Sick! Nice work on the sticks/mods,.... And great looking sliders!
