Title: looking for gears
Post by: 87zukini on April 19, 2010, 05:20:39 PM
i installed my tracker 5:12 and it was ok till the other day i hit a 3 ft shelf with both front tires at once my chromolly shafts held ok but i cracked the housing and chipped my ring and pinion . i have a toyota front axle but cannot find 5:12 gears for it and do not have a toyota rear so im trying to match up my gears . does anyone know if these are available? thanks for any help

I don't believe 5.12s are an option with toyotas.

I .....are you sure those are 5.12's? You have a Yota front axle with 5.12's? ???

I read his post as to say that he has a toyota axle (not installed in the trackick) and he is wanting to install it and put 5.12 gears in it, so it will match his stock trackick rear axle ratio.

thats correct i have a yota front axle its 4.10 though id like to match my tracker rear but i cant find 5.12 or 5.13 toyota gears. so im considering a cut down 44 i have a jig to cut it down to wrangler width . only thing is i now have chromolly samurai axles and a front housing with fully rebuilt knuckles.
