Dirty 30's - 30 Spline Chromoly CV's and Axles

These Dirty 30’s are made out of 100% 4340 chromoly and are precision polished to remove any imperfections that may cause stress risers. The ball bearings are manufactured out of the highest quality attainable in chrome steel ball bearing manufacturing, AISI 52100 is the standard of material used. The 30 spline axle shafts are 100% chromoly with a polished seal surface.

These parts have undergone years of extensive in-house and field testing and we are proud to share the results with you. The average failure rate was consistently at 8500 ft. lbs. of applied torque at a 30 degree angle. They were also field tested at the Hammers in our competition FToy and other buggies and trucks with no failures to report. In fact, we feel so confident about the quality of these Dirty 30’s that we are offering them with a no questions asked lifetime warranty.

Note: Some minor clearancing of the knuckle ball may be required.

Chromoly Creeper Flanges

Heavy duty drive flanges for Toyota solid front axles. These flanges are much stronger then factory drive flanges or lock out hubs. Flanges feature a larger center section with more support for the splines. Made from hardened tool steel (4340 Chromoly), these hold up much better to the kinds of toque possible with today's heavy duty aftermarket axles. Kit includes 2 flanges, 2 dust covers, 2 cover seals, drill bit and 12 heavy duty studs. Additional studs share the load, preventing hub stud and bolt failures common to stock drive flanges and hubs. Flange covers feature a Trail-Gear exclusive O-ring for a water proof seal. If your running stock hubs on your truck, drive flanges make a great trail spare for your tool box. If your stock hub gears fail on the trail, drive flanges can be quickly installed to restore 4wd. Fits Toyota Pickup/4Runner solid front axles. Recommended for off-road use only, not recommended for use on the street. We recommend that flanges be painted before installation.

Backing Plate Eliminator Kit

The brake backing plates can be a bother on front Toyota solid axles. They often get bent from trail damage and small rocks can get trapped between the backing plate and the rotor causing noise and damage. For many years we have taken the stock brake backing plate and cut out the center section. Then we would reassemble the axle with just the center part for spacing.

We have come up with a cleaner way to accomplish the same thing. Our Backing Plate Eliminator kit contains two spacer rings that take the place of the factory backing plate. The rings are the same thickness as stock for proper component spacing. Installation is easy, simply remove the stock backing plate and replace with our rings when your servicing the knuckle.

Creeper Gussets

Large tires and ruff driving can bend the outer knuckle ends, damaging your front solid axle. The Creeper Gusset Kit reinforces the knuckle ball and helps prevent this bending. Upper gussets include holes for mounting shocks. Kit includes two upper, shock mounts, two lower gussets, and eight steering stop gussets. Fits 1979-1985 solid Toyota front axle. Welding and grinding required for installation. Unpainted finish

Large Diff Armour

Here In addition to our small style ring gear protector above we also have this larger style for those that prefer something a little larger to protect their 3rd member. Armor welds in place. Includes two 10mm style drain plugs. Fits front or rear 8" Toyota solid axle housings. Unpainted finish

Upper Axle Gusset

This gusset welds on top of your Toyota front solid axle and helps prevent bending of the axle housing.

Magnum Knuckle Studs

Trail-Gear Magnum knuckle studs, are stronger then any other stock replacement Toyota knuckle stud on the market. These heavy-duty studs are manufactured to our specifications by world-renowned bolt manufacturer ARP (Automotive Race Products). Each stud is made from super tough, ARP 2000 material and is hardened to 220,000 PSI. Magnum studs are .250 (1/4”) longer than stock to accommodate all aftermarket steering arms. Each stud features an integrated 8mm hex head for easy removal with common tools you probably already carry in your tool bag.
