Maxtrac Diff Drop Explanation And Install 2010-2022 Toyota 4Runner

In this video, we quickly explain what a front diff drop is for and we show you how to install one on our 4runner project. It is not necessarily something you need, but it is an extra precaution to keeping your cv axles in good condition. Thank you for watching.

Any problems with changing the axle angle? CV’s are better but doesn’t that change your drive shaft angle?

Based on the video when you screw in the new top nut, it seems there is not enough thread left on the bolt top for the screw to complete go through the nut. I have a kit for my Gen5 and it looks exactly like yours. The tip of the bolt falls short of threading through the nut inner plastic liner which is consider to be the thread locker. Just wondering how safe it is?

Great video, how much torque for the bolts on the front differential? Thanks

When will this rig see mud or water crossings?

How did you get the skid plate bolts to stay in place on the skid?
I'm guessing it's your knees holding it in place.
Would make the oil changes a lot easier if there is a way to hold those bolts in place.
With those spacers it's going to be more of a challenge now.

Hey guys, do I need aligment after a diff drop?

What size bolts did you use to put back the trd skid plate

[lcatalla]

About how many inches of lift that requires front diff drop?

[nismoz]

On my TRD Off-road I just used extra spacers on the front of the TRD skid plate like you did but none on the rear. Bolted up fine.

What length spacer do you think I would need at the front and what length for the bolts you used? Please help
