Hilux treated diff gears

Post by CV Smasher »

Is anyone running treated lux diff gears?
If so where can you get them and what ratio are you running?

Are they better.......has anyone broken a set? :)

I run 4.88 treated gears in the front of my surf (8" SAS).
Got them through Longfields 3years ago with a set of there Chrom Molly CV's , so far I've smashed two sets of Longs CV's and currently I'm running Haultec CV's and they are ACE.
I take the diffs apart every 10 - 12months to check everything and the centre is looking good with only the inside (drive side) teeth looking polished with no hairline cracks or uneven wear marks at all.
I think I paid $800 for the gears (I bought a heap of gear in one go), too long ago to be sure though.

Thanks Andrew,

Thats not good news about the CV's, i put a set of the new longfield 30 spline cv's and axels hopefully they will be better, i bought them to replace the haultech one i broke.
The haultech ones were great but not meant to push 39.5s round :)

I will have to order a set of gears from longfield.

Don't know if they do them anymore they used to advertise on the web page the 5.29 ring and pinnon but no longer there i'd say they'd still be able to treat them let us know how you go
