RE-GEAR FAIL!! || The Yota Guy Discovers What Happened With My Improperly Installed Front Gears
Two years ago I upgraded to 4.88 Nitro gears with my Toyota Tacoma. They were not installed in a reputable shop nor under warrantied work. Right away, I noticed a soft "murring" noise when in four wheel drive, but only when coasting or decelerating. When I asked about it I was told, "The gears just need to broken in."
Over the next year, that "murr" noise continued to grow louder and more apparent. To the point that I did not dare drive in four wheel drive. That's when I had Geoffrey Beers - The Yota Guy - take a look. He immediately discovered a very loose pinion flange with tons of free-play. A rebuild was definitely mandatory. In this video we discover the extent of the damage from improper installation.
