- In this video, we install 5.29” Nitro Gears on our 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road. After adding all the weight and 315x75x16 tires, Mateo’s reaction to the truck’s re-gear is something you won’t want to miss.
Please note: If you plan to get bigger tires, you must re-gear your truck.

This is a guy you want re-gearing your truck. He's a true professional and looks/sounds like he's done thousands of them.
I was just thinking this. I’d travel to him just for him to regear my truck.
The way he does the job looks like Gordon Ramsay cooking His Dinner!
Tim Tim loollll 😆
That risotto is raw you Donkey!
slaps 2 gears on either side of someone's head and asks, "what are you?"
Does it as good as Jenna Jameson in her prime.
He doesn't seem to be yelling insults at people
Love watching a professional work who knows his shit, this guy could work on my truck anytime!
that is what I was thinking...sick ass skills.
toyota dealer need to train all of their mechanics like this guy.
last toyota dealership service center I went to they couldn't even find my engine's starter.
Maybe the lube tech....
toyota needs to learn how to make things the way the mod visionaries make things and the trucks would be so insane...but then all these guys wouldn't have a profession
and then charge you three or four times as much....
Back when I was first buying my Taco I originally went to a Toyota dealership in VA Beach. I had basically closed on a 2019 Off Road when they told me the rack and pinion was cracked. They offered to fix it and said it would be ready by that Tuesday. Tuesday rolls around and they tell me it’s gonna be Friday now. Friday turns into Monday. I walked away from the deal and found a 2018 Off Road in pristine condition the next day at a Chevy Dealership.
This mechanic legit makes my heart warm. There are so many shady mechanics out there who would cut corners and lie to you about their experience. This guy is the wizard of drivetrain 🎩
Mark of a true professional, a clean work bench with only the tools out that he's currently using and puts them away, in their proper place, as soon as he's done with them!
Don't understand the dislikes. For those of us that have been around this game for decades, and have plenty of technical aptitude ourselves, this guy is the real deal...straight up professional and a master of his craft. Instead of criticizing sh*t, we in the community should be celebrating such great work and professionalism. There are so many out there that do crap work, it is great to see this level of expertise. Don't know the dudes at Nitro and never heard of them, but well done!!
Maaaan, he makes it look so easy. You can tell he’s done this once or twice, haha. Great vid guys! 🤘🏼
Dude is a real pro
Jared Cisco crushing it @ NitroGear. That guy needs a raise...
He needs his own shop
He needs his own shop
Yep the guy is a real pro , just got my 2021 Tacoma re-geared with 4.88 , the truck feels amazing.
Drove from Vancouver, WA to Cashmere, WA about 5hrs , stayed over night and got the truck back , broke the gears in and tge truck feels awesome. I usually don't let anyone work on my Toy but with that guy in charge , anytime.
Thanks again guys
That’s amazing to hear!
What’s the place called?
disclaimer: "do not try this sh--t in your garage" ... just hire this dude, "liked" and "subscribed"
I like this guys work ethics... takes the extra steps to grease the bearing and lock tight. I do that at work but most managers don’t care for it since it takes time.. they want quantity not quality
Facts! Most shops dont wanna reimburse you for buying loc tite! Wtf right! They wanna use some no name generic lock hard or some goop.
This is the best gear install video I have ever seen. The editing was well done but the mechanic was a damn surgeon. That was very entertaining to watch.
I Dunno how much these guys charge for this but, the mechanic doing the actual gear change really knows what hes doin yeeh!!

I wanted to skip till the end but damn I couldn't stop watching
same haha
Holy skilled hands. There needs to be a country-wide list of guys in different states able to do this quality of work, because you’re not gonna find them at the dealership.
It’s amazing how professionals can make this look so easy. I too would make the drive from Portland to have this shop do my gear change. Great video, thanks for highlighting this shop.
We can caravan haha, first maxxpowell, now taco beast
Buyer Beware. You're asking for crap parts and zero customer service when you get involved with nitro. They suck.
Portland Oregon?
MPG, drivability, and low end response improves for off-roading and just pulling away from a stop sign. One big advantage people often do overlook is that also remove ALOT of strain on a transmission that costs more than gears.
I have no idea what I just watched, but it was one of the most satisfying youtube experiences I've ever had :)
Recently went with 4.88's with a manual... wish I would've done it straight off the lot! No comparison!
Also OV Tuned for about 45,000 miles now, 67 total... It runs so sweet that it's unrecognizable from what I bought!
👍👍👍👍👍
The guy changing the gears is a true professional. His skills are dead on you can see his confidence handling those diffs
1st time Tacoma owner here, I grew up in Cashmere, Wa. I always used bikes to get around in the hills there, but it’s really cool to see the local folks getting recognition 😁
This dude is a 'GEAR HEAD' for sure. Total confidence in every little tap of the hammer. Amazing to watch. Wish he was working on mine dang it
I have a new found appreciation for the level of technical precision, elbow grease and flat out hard work that goes into "I want my truck lifted". Lol.
It’s really a hell of a science 😂
Absolutely love it whenever I see a torque wrench!!! He even torqued the tires like you’re suppose to.
I was quoted $3000 some odd dollars for a 5.29 regear. Just throwing that out there for those wondering costs. If you gotta a quote for less feel free to share.
Thanks.. Was the quote from a shop in Cali?
If i ever seen poetry in an auto shop, this is it
This guy was probably ex Toyota mechanic and now makes a lot more money working in this shop. I can tell this guy is a total pro. Hopefully during my regear i get someone like this guy.
Having more mechanics like him will definitely makes the world a better place
It’s all about experience
Jared Cisco is a MASTER JEDI. Impressive flow of workmanship.
God Bless You!
Truly a master!
Im happy to see a torque wrench being used. That is so awesome
Omg that man is a master of his craft. Had every tool for the job didn’t even miss a beat. That shop is blessed to have that man
17 minutes and 31 seconds of my life I'll never get back, and I'm good with that!
"Bearing lubrication is vital for preserving the performance and lifespan of rolling element bearings. Lubrication helps separate moving parts relative to one another, such as rollers and raceways or balls, to prevent wear and tear and friction."
I couldnt stop watching that guy work damn
As a mechanical technician for industrial equipment, that man knows his shit. I would hire him on my crew any day.
That's how a true mechanic should look like working on anything. Looks like he's done that hundreds if not thousands of times
I kept thinking I was watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. The way he was explaining each step, definitely a great vid and now it got me thinking of getting my Taco re-geard.
Thanks bro🙌
love how modern man is amazed by the wonders of a regear.
Used to be the other way around (mechanic amazed by technology) amazed or aggravated one or the other.
The Hitman of Trucks!! He Bald, A Pro, Makes it look e z, and not overconfident or cocky, just simply amazing A+++
This mechanic is a pro! Dude makes his work look flawless. Excellent video!
the mechanic thats doing this job is outstanding he really knows his job and makes it look effortless
this man should be a training tech for toyota or open a differential tech school
FINE JOB YOUNG MAN
dude this guy is so fascinating to watch... I wish this guy was in canada close to me :( I dont even have a Tacoma yet... but when i do buy one i may consider to drive it to them for regears!
I wish this guy was in Hawaii. He was spot on and knows his shit. Damn solid🤙🤙🤙
Hes not the only mechanic who knows how to work on diffs. You guys swear.
This dude is a true pro and KNOWS what he is talking about!
Exactly 🙌
dudes a straight beast, good luck finding a competence level that high without a homie referral...
Always regeared toyotas back in the late 80's early 90's with 35s on 15x10s , back then did the work yourself! No one was regearing professionally in the north. At least if you broke something you could fix it. Changed 6 diffs, never want to change another :) , great video!
I wish I had the experience to feel the pinion bearing preload like that. Practice makes perfect. Very good skill to have being able to rebuild a solid axle properly.
How could you trust anyone except this guy to change your diff??? He’s a freakin master!
Yeah honestly had trust issues for every shop since recording this😂
Good to see Aaron Lewis finally found his calling.
That mechanic was freaking amazing. Well done.
he is truly a master at his craft! 🙌
You may want to reconsider the Nitro gears. Their warranty is only good for 2 years. Mine broke right after the two year warranty, both the front and the rears. I went G2 the next time around, they have a 10 year warranty!!
I went YUKON 4.88 with a Trutrac Rear, stoked!
The mechanic looks always straight face in the video, but he is smooth, professional and fast!
He does not care about what is coming in, but he cares about what is driving out!
This guy is an artist, a true professional!
I have a 2014 Tacoma with the 4 liter and 6 speed manual. I put 18 inch rims on with 33” overall tire diameter. No gear charge and really don’t need one. Just need to remember when doing 60mph on the needle I am actually doing 66 :)
Damn thats impressive, that guy know what he does 😯
That is one bad ass mechanic with confidence and skills. I think that the whole forum totally got sidetrack by the crafsmanshift of the mechanic and not much attention was played to the title. If the mechanics around the country were like this guy people would never have fears to take the cars to the dealers or have seconds thoughts. This guy is the shit!!
Wow. This is just like watching a knee or hip replacement! You guys are pretty much surgeons.
Much props to that nitro gears tech. He's a bad dude. 🔥
Max powell went through this guy to do his re gear
This is the type of guy who buys the hardest models...and completes them 😆 Pro
“I’m happy with that”
That tech is definitely the ring and pinion Master! He made that look way too easy......poetry in motion! Glad you posted this. It is exactly what I was looking for. Really want to get Nitro Gears in my 2019 TRD Pro. Now have to research local companies that will install them & offer to warranty their work. Wish I was close to the shop in this video & have them masterfully installed by the Nitro tech! Safe Travels!
This shop is 1/2 mile from my house🤔. Gonna have to make an appointment to get my truck some new gears.
Jesse Sanchez sounds like the advertisement worked! Sheep
Jesse Sanchez where is this shop?
U a lucky SOB!
Where is shop located
@@georgetony1000 cashmere,wa
This technician knows what he is doing. I wish there were guys like him.
I have no idea exactly how he did that but that was artwork
This technician is an artist
This is what “Like a Boss” means
This is a very technical job, i wouldn’t want anyone except that guy to do this for me.
Damn that road noise!
Agreed. That shit drove me nuts on my Jeep. I'm in a Tacoma now and debating on tires. Too aggressive and the noise wears you down driving, especially on any road trips.
I hate working on cars! Always did! Never took a mechanic class in school. I love souping up my trucks tho but i pay people to do it. This guy is a master at what he does. Every lil detail was on point. Makes me want to learn.
I need to get this done 😬!!!, I don’t have as much weight on mine but it’s starting to add up,
Love the editing and film coverage it just keeps getting better and better and better lol!!!,
Great video my good friend 👍
Not gna lie id trust this guy with mine lol he made the install go so smooth
Mechanic is a full blown savage!
Damn..the Nitro technician has mad skills. How long did it take him to get your truck back on the road?
BOMBS judging by the edits I’d say 2 1/2 hours from pulling truck in to pulling truck out.
That mechanic is a God. I am awestruck at his skills. Thanks for posting this freaking amazing video.
PERFECT..!
This is the vid I was waiting for.
Great job on the edit and video work.

I’m hoping to drive up from Portland with the family early this summer to get the Nitro experience.
This guy knows how to efficiently do the best work.
Legit work - thanks TacomaBeast for the heads up...
Hey guys, adding the updated TSB 58-18 or 68-18 dramatically helps with the shifting & no more "hunting for gears"....its been over 3K miles since the update & my 2018 OR is running amazing (how it should have out of the the factory). Now 3rd generation Tacoma owners can merge the TSB update with 4.88/5.29 & yall have probably the best engine/transmission/gear combo out there for Off-Road & On-road period. Thanks for the great content!
Heavily meditated, i have 2017 tacoma trd sports my issue was gearing also, when down hill around 40 mh when i put my foot on brake it the rpm will go up to 2000 and up. You think will be de same TSB ?
@@alexanderbautista3368 : if it's a 2017 you definitely need the update if the dealership hasn't already done it (most likely it hasn't & won't if you don't bring it up) all the Tacoma owners I've talked to & Off-Road with have noticed a day & night improvement after the update.
Wait, no rtv or gasket between the axle housing and 3rd member?
The real truck gearing GURU right there.
I wonder how 5.29s be on my 6MT 🤔
Damn I wish I grew up around cars and a mechanics life. I could tell this guy should be every mechanic out there. A no bullshitter
He makes this look crazy easy. Will the computer fuel mileage tracker adjust for the new gears or does it even mater.
@@tacomabeast what was the cost for this setup?
I don’t even own a Tacoma and I’m mesmerized by this vid. Great work all around! 🙌
Great Video TCMBST!!!
What is the cost on a job like this?
I’m in Los Angeles where can I find someone like this guy to regear my truck?? Awesome video!
If I keep my Tacoma long term I’m upgrading mine to this especially with Towing and the hunting for gears.
I’m going to these people to re hear my Tacoma even if they are 1500 miles away
Its amazing how easy everything is with all the right TOOLS!
Exactly!
2014 FJ Cruiser with 33s and heavy bumpers would 4.56 work? For FJs 4.88 seems weak...Your recommendations?
Years ago, I used to own a complete stock 1990 Toyota 4Runner, V-6, 4 speed automatic, 32” tires. This series of 4runners came factory with 4.88 gear ratios. The manual ones came with 4.56’s
Almost spilled my coffee. What the hell what kind of music that is
😂
What was your mpg before and after the gear upgrade?
I would always recommend going one size more than what is recommended to get back to a factory setting i put 488s in my jeep when 456 was what was recommended and it totally improved performance especially on the highway but seemed to have more power at every rpm
What are the costs to do this and do you have a link for a 2013 tundra?
I know this response is way after the fact. But I was quoted 3000 some odd dollars on a 5.29 regear.
This guy is baddd asssss !! Super smooth. Knows his shit. I know where I’m going for gears now for sure.
Yes I want to
Get this but everyone has beat me to it! Lol I have contacted Nitro 8months ago to get a quote which is 2k for them to do it! I would not have it any other way! Good call @TacomaBeast
Does that price include material and labor together??
Yeah I haul camping gear and I'm a atv and dirt bike owner family of four we do long 3000 plus Mile road trips in the Tacoma definitely needed next upgrade
Over 3 grand to regear, I let go of the brake and mine rolls. If the gas mileage is not going to save 3 grand why bother.
It's expensive. Definitely something to think over. Its not a Prinsu rack, tires or wheels. This is one of if not the most expesive mods on a Tacoma except for a supercharger on a 2nd gen. Is it overpriced? Who knows. Havent called around.
It's not about saving mpg, it's about driveability. With all that weight he's carrying his truck with search for gears like crazy on the highway and even moreso going up hill. Saving some MPG is a side benefit.
OV tune is cheaper.
@@mcse-nv2ou Does OV Tune really work? I've read mixed reviews.
@@chrisginoc I got ovtune on my trunk and It's okay. Right now I'm running 1.05 Gear lock octane 87. 6th gear is still completely unless especially going uphill. High speed still feels like stock but I do gotta say it does hold 5th gear a little longer where before it would automatically downshift to 4th gear. But while holding on to 5th gear you're gonna lose speed on a small hill and throttle respond sucks at high speed I would really have to gas it to get it moving and when it does move rpm will jump to almost 5500. Cruse control feel the same. Under 60mph is great! I did tried 91 octane on a full tank and it does feels alot better but gas was too expensive so I switched back. I'm plan on regearing someday to see the difference
one of those kinda jobs where it pays to pay and have the right people do it.
I'm no slouch and mechanically inclined, I've got a good garage shop with plenty of tools, but Engines, Transmissions, and diffs are the places I don't go because I just don't want to deal with the stress of oversights or not compensating correctly on the more expensive internals.
Great video editing but.... TURN THE BACKGROUND MUSIC DOWN.
Jared is an artist not just a hack mechanic nice work.
Definitely not his first day on the job!
Homeboy knows his stuff...would be nice to work in that environment.
