Rear axle problems.

[Cowboy95]

Looking to swap my rear end in my 2016 sr5 2wd. Can anyone help me out with what axles I can use for a direct swap or if theres a good way to upgrade my stock rear axle?

Firstly what are you trying to get at for an end result ?
Racing?
Just something stronger?
Axle housing that doesn't leak?
what would be you budget?
Dynatrack pro rock 60s
Camburg 3.5 prerunner 9"
Diamond axle

I'm in the process of lowering it, want something stronger and a locker. I mainly drift in mine.

Rear just went out in me yesterday so time to upgrade.

Wow ok complete opposite ahahaha them get and axle out a 4x4 with a locker and regear

Giving it's a 6 lug would a Chevy rear work by chance?

Anything will pretty much sit under there as long the axle perches are line up .are you think Chevy 12 bolt ?

1500 HD rear with the posi, is what I've been looking at. Or a ford 9 inch which I have under my explorer. Just never did much with rear axles so dont know a whole lot on them.

Both would require driveline work and gearing hard choice my friend

Ok, so a 4x4 rear would be my best and easiest choice?

It will bolt right on,shocks will line up,the diff would bolt right up to the axle , has a locker that can we wired up
Another option would be to rebuild yours gusset it up for strength re gear and add a air locker or fully lock it

Ok, thank you. I think imma rebuild it with the nitro gear set up for 5.29 gears
