I know this subject has been hashed through a million times, and I expect to get into some heated arguments in this thread, but I would like to hear from people who have acctually used an FJ80 high pinion diff w/ reverse cut gears in the rear of your Toyota, and what were the results?
I contend that the weakness issue with a high pinnion diff in the rear is another urban ledgend, and if I can formulate my argument into written words, I sure like to prove it.
I sat for hours arguing with a buddy of mine last night. I was arguing the weakness point and he was arguing the opposite. Turns out he was right! The reverse cut gears in a high pinion are theoreticaly no weaker in the rear than normal cut gears in a low pinion in the rear, unless there is some other reason than just being "reverse cut".
I would like to hear from some folks who have tried it before I "try" to go into my explanation.
