Huge Rear Axle On My TRD Off-Road Trim - 9.5" Upgrade | 4th Gen Tacoma Forum

Hey guys! I picked up Underground Tacoma recently and the color is so sick! It changes in certain lighting. Sometimes it looks dark grey, black, blue, and even green/brown sometimes. It just honestly depends on the lighting/ cloud coverage. I've added a few photos of my truck with different lighting so you all can see what I am talking about. Post up your Underground Tacoma!

For those wondering, Toyota did give us a lot of what we asked for in this new truck. One crazy important feature, the 9.5" rear axle. This axle is nearly as big as a Dana 60, only .25" smaller. Naturally, they are super strong. You could technically run a 40" tire with relatively little issues. My plan is to run 37s bare minimum in the next few months, and 40s only if I decide to throw it on portals. But I'm beyond stoked on the beefier rear end. Hopefully the front can keep up! The 3rd Gen had a max size of 8.75". While still a good size, these new ones are much better.
