Ultimate Toyota Tacoma Build Episode 4. 5.29 Yukon Gears And ARB Lockers.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 янв 2022
- Toyota Tacoma regear! Today we are installing 5.29 Yukon gears and ARB lockers on my 2021 Tacoma. This is not rocket science, but it does take a very clear understanding of how these parts operate. Every detail is important in the setup process and it's worth taking the time to research different install methods. If you have the right tooling and patience, you can do this job but there is no shame in hiring a professional.
I hope this video can help you make that decision 👊.

One thing I noticed in this video is how much you cleaned and prepped your parts. Nothing you reassembled was dirty, greasy, or old RTV hanging on anywhere. It make the build good easy more smooth. Good job on taking a highly technical content and making it where everybody can understated it.
I'm soooo picky about how clean I keep everything lol. It's pretty important in my opinion
This escalated so fast, I remember when you bought the tacoma as "overlanding and camping" truck... awesome build man!
"Desert does it" has a compressor under seat mount that might work.
Switch pros on a powertray mount (underhood) with a SDHQ mount (in cab) are what I would recommend. Looks OEM.
Switch pro 9100 is the only way to go for switch panels! Also there used to be a place off 512 and Steele st called tacoma speedometer. They are great dudes with a lot of information that I’m sure could help you with calibration. Rad build man, can’t wait to see it complete!
I forgot about Tacoma speedo! I will hit them up next week 👊
Thanks!
Switch pros are the way to go! There are mounts for the panels that go in the coin tray low left of the steering wheel and in the sunglasses holder in the headliner. Both great spots. Get an expedition essentials dash mount and you'll have a ton of 1/4-20 mounting options. I have a sp9100 on the dash and in the headliner.
Switch pro is the way to go. I have one installed in my 16 Tacoma. As for compressor I have a twin ARB. It is tucked between the bedside and fender on the drivers side. I also plumbed in a tank makes for Super quick air ups
SwtichPro is definitely the way to go
Meso Customs is the other way to go.
Expedition Essentials for the bedside cubby bracket , fits ARB single or twin compressor, I have a twin. They also have a plug and play harness that looks like factory Toyota, runs up to battery. Love love love mine. As stated before switch pro for switch panel.
Tuning CVC tune. Will fix Speedo too. Several tuners in the Seattle area .. will fix shifting issues and Speedo.
PRO hood. I love how it looks. Cresting sucks. Put a switch in you can control front and rear cameras on demand. I added front camera and switch to select camera.
I’ve never done gears. I thought it was weird that they had paint on them so often. Now I know why. Thanks for the education!
This is an incredible kick off to what will be an incredible build series!!!
Also I cannot wait to see the build series on the TJ from the ground up and what you have planned for that!! As always keep up the incredible work!!
Recently ran across a mount for ARB twin for the driver side bed cubby.
I did a DIY one years ago and it's great.
Sdhq has some great mounting solutions for compressor and switch panels. So does expedition essentials, they are local out of mill creek I believe. Really excited to see this build
Fun to hear how excited you are about this build. Great series!
Thanks to you I need a set of 38’s on my Tacoma now. 2017 trd off road access cab with 5.29’s.
I’ve wanted to build an IFS crawler since I was a teenager playing with RC cars. This is a really cool project
I was born and raised right, a Ford guy. But this series shows me I have a chance built my rig into a monster of a half ton.
Thanks for airing up the front left tire on the TJ. It was driving my OCD crazy.
Getting ready to do my first set of diffs. 06 Sequoia, Yukon 529's, Eaton E-Locker in the rear. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I've had this video on repeat and have been dissecting it for weeks.
TJ LOVE...I can not wait for the TJ project. I have been building my TJ with your rig in mind. Thanks for your time bud. HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!!!!!!!
Happy new year 👊
Meso Customs makes a nice switch panel. I’m pretty sure they do custom panel layouts too.
Rago fabrication has a great under hood mount for an ARB twin compressor. If you want the compressor in the cab Desert Does It makes an under the seat mount. Personally I like mine under the hood, it’s too loud in the cab.
I had a custom panel made by MESO customs as well. It is a nice raised panel in the roof, just behind the sunglasses panel.
As someone who is a mechanical engineer for an industrial gearing company it is great to see someone taking the time to explain gears, how they work in a differential and explaining the verbiage so people who don't know anything about gearing can understand it better. Also as someone who does buildups for gearboxes and such, a lot of times it makes sense to us because we're the one's the designed and built it even after peer review. That is not to say we don't make the explanation simple, easy or in some cases make since. Feedback on instructions is always appreciated and it helps us, the engineers, help you, the customer, achieve your goals. That being said if there is ever something you notice, like checking the gap with a feeler gauge with all the shims in and how difficult it was, that you think of a better way to do, reach out and let them know.
S-Tech makes some good switch systems that are vehicle specific. I think SPOD also makes some vehicle specific mounting stuff and their switch panel runs to relays to handle some heavier currents. If you want a wireless option that you can slap a 4 switch (remote switch controlling relays) in a non specific spot in the truck, TRIGGER makes a nice wireless option.
I used to change gears on 85 model Toyota’s differentials quite a lot. What you did there with that independent is over the top. Wow. That’s a lot of work, but you got a perfect shop for doing work like this.
For the switches: SDHQ - Switch-Pros OEM Keypad Mount - Toyota Tacoma
For the compressor get the dual ARB and it mounts behind the intake under the hood. Super easy.
Yes! I've been patiently waiting for this.
Oh yea! Finally some Taco love! Can't wait to see your whole build man.
I really appreciate how well you explain everything, but most importantly, your level humility and humbleness is truly inspiring. Many other channels are just made to look like author *knows* everything about everything, but you are comfortable to ask your viewers for solutions to your own questions, which I find very refreshing.
Man I been waiting for this build to get rolling 🤙🏽 awesome video bro keep it coming!
Use to swap 456 to 529 for 36" swampers, 150HP wasn't much 30 yrs ago. Cool video, memories lol. Keep it up
Great work Dude. Always fascinating to watch.
Slee Off-road makes an engine bay compressor bracket for dual ARB compressors. It fits into the space under the hood on the passenger side near the firewall. Ran this setup on my ‘21 Tacoma.
Also, can’t wait to see this build progress!! This is going to be awesome!!!
SDHQ off road makes a panel that puts a switch pros to the lower left of the column. Location looks iffy, but you can see it for yourself.
Perfect 👌
Thanks man
Get the ARB Twin compressor. Multiple companies sell brackets to either mount it in the back passenger corner of the hood or right behind the grill. Runnin for tacos and Tacoma Beast should have everything you need!
Can't wait to see this thing in action when its done!
Speedometer calibration - I went with an inline module. Program the tire size on your computer and install behind the dash. Super easy. Rough country or Hypertech.
Expedition Essentials bedside compressor mount is pretty sweet. I'll be doing that one some day. Hides whatever compressor you prefer behind the larger cubby in the bed. There are some good solutions out there to mount in the engine compartment too I believe.
I like rocker switches but didn't find too many great solutions that got you more than 3 switches. Seems like everyone likes the switch pros setup but I was stubborn and cut a hole in my sunglasses holder to add a bigger rocker switch panel. Had the sunglass holder instead of crawl control deal since I got a manual trd off-road.
Be prepared to do a lot of test flex and trimming, even though RCLT moves the tire forward two inches I still had to tub the front aprons and the front edge of the rocker/door hinge pillar to clear 40’s on BigMike’s Tacoma and his employee JR’s Tacoma. Great video as always!
This is great. I’ve been eyeing a 4th Gen 4Runner build. This will all be super helpful once I dive into that.
YEAH dude, now this is my kind of build! Your videos are really good, keep it up.
You made the gears look easy, I just did 4.56’s in my 01 f350 it was my first go out it and took a little time but did them in the driveway
Been waiting for this one in a looong time 🤙🏻 cheers dude.
I’ve seen a few guys mount compressors in the little cubby at the back end of the bed. Can’t wait to see this thing finished.
I have a switch pros 9100 with a 3D printed panel. Cleanest switch set up I could find.
I'm a Tacoma guy so this will be an awesome series, I've been waiting for this!!
You have some serious knowledge and skill. Awesome build.
Very cool video, you have really nailed the content, look forward to seeing it progress
Great video man! Keep ‘em coming! Cheers!
Hooray! Been waiting for this. TYVM
Switch panel - switch pros and blaze Offroad makes a legit mount for them that sits where the cubby is to the left of the wheel.
Compressor - Expedition essentials uses the cubby in the bed. Also some mounts for under seat seat.
Speedo adjustment - easiest is scan gauge 2. Correct for a percentage (can figure that out yourself), other benefit is you can monitor
temps as well.
Pro hood - you can get hoods online for 350 and paint as needed 🤷🏻♂️
These transmissions have a tendency to run hot so it’s nice to be able to monitor trans temps right on the scan gauge also
Just bought a 21 TRD OR 4x4 in a automatic just like yours and just love it , I went with the fox by pass shocks on all 4 corners 1.5 inch lift in the front and 1 inch lift for the rear, with TRD pro wheels and Toyo AT3’s that are 32inch tall
it’s my daily , but for the slight suspension lift with 1 size bigger tire I’m impressed with what it does off road, I can’t imagine what yours will do with 38’s lol that’s some serious transformation, keep up the great work Nate , can’t wait to see this built all done and on the trails 👍🏻
I'm no stranger to gear swaps but I've heard horror stories on the clamshells. After seeing this I'm gonna tackle the gears in my 4runner. Thanks!
Awesome video Nate! Great to see you moving forward with the 3rd gen Tacoma. Find it fascinating watching talented people such as yourself doing these in depth projects. Looking forward to the outcome. Keep up the great work. Oh, also, Max P is looking for you.... LOL..
Those time lapses on the slider are absolute money! Just know they are very much appreciated
I’m so pumped to watch this video and I haven’t even watched it yet!!!!!!
Great Video, I used "Switch Pros 9100" one wire through the dash, 8 switches. I cut out the coin/dash cup on the left side dash, it's RGB color match your instrument night lighting. I fabricated my own Bracket and Mounted an ARB CKMA12 over the passenger side fender well, not ARB's biggest compressor but works for my applications. I have pic's of the build if needed, Cheers.
I always get lucky with the stock shims! People love to make a project out of measuring shims but 9/10 times the stock shim pack will get you pretty damn close, if not right on.
Yeah.. I totaly agree. Did a calculating measure of stock carrier and the new Eaton harrop E locker carrier. Im bad at math but this one got 100% perfect 😂😎
Stoked to see the RCLT!!!
vivd lumens is what i run, it colour matches the blue back lighting. arb 12v twin is super reliable and they have the mount that fits in the engine bay. just dont put your locker buttons on the switch pro, ive heard of stories where things short and you dont want your lockers coming on randomly especially if your compressor isnt on. i have my compressor and the 2 lockers front and rear on my 3rd gen locked out with a relay that wont allow them to come on unless the pump is on. cheer bro, sick build!
I swapped in an LSD for the factory open diff in my BMW. I reused the same shims and everything looked good. I think most of the tolerance you are accounting for with the shims is in the cast parts. The machines parts like the LSD or the gears are probably kept to much tighter tolerances because that's not hard with a machined part. I know the cast parts have machines areas for the bearings to sit, but it seems like that milling process it not as accurate as when the gears and LSD/locker housing. that might come down to fixturing and what is practical in a mass production environment.
That RCLT kit is pretty cool. I look forward to seeing the front end come together. I think the weak point is still going to be the factory front axle and maybe the rear axle as well, but 38" stickies will be an interesting case study. I wonder if you could narrow a full width axle with an off center pumpkin and get custom short axle shafts to keep it IFS. I know some KOH teams run IFS, but that is with a centered pumpkin. Maybe a front axle center section with semi float rear axle tubes and ends to give you a nice flange to bolt inner CVs to. I know the stock setup has a splined shaft on the inner CV, but CVs are available that bolt to flanges as well.
I imagine you've thought this through already. I stay tuned to see what happens.
Taco is looking Great!
ARB has a bracket to put their compressor in the bed box behind the rear wheel wells 👍
Switch Pros is the go-to switch panel company from what I’ve seen.
Dude your stoke is making me want a taco 👍 looking forward to this build series. Your a master, I truly enjoy your content. Keep it up.
Gonna be one of the baddest 3rd gens out there! Looking forward to progress vids!
So excited to follow this build! You do such good work 👍
I’m with you man, I’m in Western Manitoba and we’ve been hovering right around -35 to -45.
Genesis Offroad makes very nice dual battery trays for the Tacoma. Rago fabrication makes a nice twin compressor mount that includes a spot to mount the under hood portion of a switch pro.
For the clamshell, To hold it, clamp the ear into the vice and crank that impact :). Works nice for the air hammer too!
Digging it! Love the build so far 👍🍺
HI NATE 👋
THIS WAS PRETTY COOL 😎
I'M GOING TO SHOW MY NEPHEW HE MIGHT LIKE TOO . LOVE WATCHING 👀 YOU FIGURE THIS ALL OUT . AWESOME FOOTAGE 👌 THANK YOU 🙏 YOU'LL BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! ENJOYED ! BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS 🙏
Been waiting for this to happen for a while. Awesome!
Absolute pro. So good. Thanks for sharing mate
so sick vlog mate!🤟🏾🤟🏾👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥
Awesome, I do believe you are the first fellow on RUclips to buy just ring and pinion gear.(as far as 3rd gen Tacomas go) Everybody else just swapped prebuilt carriers.
Your Taco is going to look so awesome.
Switch Pro 9100 all the way, have it in my TJ and my 2021 Ram Dually. Love them!
Incredible video, love it
Those 5.29 gears would be great even in a stock Tacoma given the horrifically tall od these trucks came with. I can’t wait to see the end result with that marlin long travel rock crawler suspension. Great work as always!
Excited for this!
Love it, going to put an Eaton front locker in mine
Woah 9 months since i was last here.., im glad you came to your senses on the upgrades . Theres just no way A stock tacoma with 4x4 sticker could do simple rock climbing
Enjoying the content, Waiting for the TJ rebuild.
I run an ARB air compressor with an expedition essentials rear bed mount. This puts it in the driver side bed cubby. Makes it Easy to access with the tail gate down.
Happy New Year Nate and family , this is the best Sunday of 2022 , well ok until you get the Taco finished, that'll be the best Sunday of 2022, best companies getting the parts from for the build, couldn't get any better all's Marlin Crawler has to do now is support you with a doubler for the transmission,👍
Always enjoy you. I sold my Gladiator an now putting a 4Runner together so will look forward to all this, I will get another Jeep JLU again an keep this Toyota but need to finish this overland off grid first an keep
Rough country has a plug and play speedometer adjustment module. I use it myself, very useful 👌. I like this one because if you ever change your tire size you can adjust it yourself whenever
Got to love the taco trucks:) You have a great channel and I look forward to seeing this on the trail.
Method bead grip wheels are legit, I'm running them on my Gladiator with 37" KO2s. Last time I was out snow wheeling the rear tire was leaking around the bead from some debris that got pushed in there and I ran it completely flat for a mile or so and never lost the bead. I regularly go down to 5-6 PSI in the snow and 8 everywhere else and haven't lost a bead yet.
Clean work my man, respect!
17 degrees!!! Brrrrr!
Looking forward to see what switch panel you go with because I'll be in the market for one soon.
Really excited to see this all together at Hammers! You'll have to come and find us so we can get the rigs together. The switch panel definitely looks into SDHQ Bezel for a Switch-Pro, Yukon makes a little compressor that's easy to package specific to lockers but you'd have to get crafty. Hypertech makes a speedo calibrator that we have used on a 2nd Gen Tacoma. Talk ADV Fiberglass into making some crazy cool hood, they have been killing it with the new Bronco. Good work Nate, stoked for the final product!
For the compressor, CBI makes a real clean mount that fits in the right front firewall for an ARB compressor. I have had great luck with mine.
Never did a regear and probably never will, but this video was very interesting and entertaining to watch.
Nice job. Looking forward to the next video.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us I muchly appreciate it.😎👍
Didn't know Randy's Ring & Pinion is now Randy's Worldwide. Those guys have supported the off-road community for decades. Cool to see you give them a plug!
Slee offroad makes a nice ARB compressor mount that mounts in the engine bay behind the airfilter box, very clean and almost looks factory.
I'm looking forward to hearing how those rims do at low air pressure. For someone who needs their wheeler to stay streetable they may be a very good option.
Switch Pro 9100 is a great option. Requires less real estate than rocker switches with added on features for triggers and flash functions. I created the LIFTd Customs switch cradle allowing me to mount the controller on any RAM mount or go pro mount
I use a inline speedometer calibrator. Rough country makes one . Im using Hypertech speedometer calibrator
You did get your marlin crawler rclt. Hell yeah, looking forward to the finished reveal. btw the Viar "extreme" double comp kit is a great option for you, and has enough cfm to power tools as well. mounted to some home made u-bolts you can attach it the frame if need be.
If you're in the PNW we need more Elbe Hills and Naches Trail content! I grew up in Eatonville and I had a 94 YJ Wrangler in highschool (was my first car) that I bought bone stock. My friends family was into Jeepspeed and had a couple desert racing rigs that they took up to Elbe often. They helped me spring over lift my YJ and put it on 33s. Was a rad little weekend warrior. My friends and I went up to Elbe all the time back in 2011-2013. My little YJ did every trail except the huge mud pits in the Busy Wild lol. Those just break axles so I didnt ever want to try it. But my little rig never let me down for nearly 3 years of abuse before I sold it. The tiny dana 30 and dana 35 never snapped lol. Makes me want a wheeling rig again but I just dont have the space to work on one anymore. Some of my favorite memories were made on those trails man. Good times gooooood times.
I went with 2 X ViAir compressors feeding an air tank. Because the ViAir unit is small and has braided outputs and input lines it made it easy to mount wherever I wanted behind interior panels.
Which compressor do you use? I recently got a 400p and was considering something like what you have
@@kaimasterson8512 I went with VIAIR 380C 200psi Dual performance value pack off Amazon and swapped out the 200psi pressure switch with a 120 psi switch. I can route intakes up in the inner fender wells or even a snorkel, and if one pump fails I can disconnect the power to it and use only one pump. I had a spare tank in the junk pile and used hardware store flexible hose to the front of the Jeep as well as in the back. Plumbed out air connections in front and back bumpers. I use #speedflate air system to do all 4 tires at once and often air up others while I’m waiting. Lol. With the system I have I have used air tools on the trail or side of the highway. Very happy with how it turned out.
@@charlietoner wow that sounds like a really sweet setup
@@kaimasterson8512 when I looked at the ARB twin setup without a tank, just a manifold, my setup was WAY cheaper and adaptable
Very excited for this build
Me too 🤘
I am loving all the Toyota love
