I want to run at least 37s. Actually that's probably exactly what I want to run. I am going to try and avoid swapping axles and make the ones I have work. I first need to locate an elocker. I don't think it's too bad to make it work with my axles. But I thought if I could find axles to...

Yes I know the retrofit info is, I just want to know if axle length is same or if 3rd gen is longer.

I feel like I am going to be better off just getting an elocker and retro-fitting it to my current 85 rear axle. Would like to do same setup on front eventually. But rear is most important right now.

I did see that. Definitely not against coils but I honestly think the fab work needed is a little more than I am capable of. If I bought a rear axle assembly with e-locker(from like a 3rd gen), is that the same size axle as my 1985 rear axle?

Thanks for the tips! So with that being said, I need to find 90-97 FJ-80 Axles to use for this?

True. This is for a 1985 Runner, not Taco. I have access to fabrication work. I just want to make sure that it isn't going to be overkill. I plan to do a diesel swap in the near future, (om617.952) so I want to make sure I have the beefiest setup possible so to speak, without spending an...

Do you know what years are compatible (passenger drop)? I have found several on Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market

I like the idea of the axle being a bit wider for a little added stability. I do agree though, that would definitely bother me not being the same width. Do you know if the FJ80 front axle housing width is the same as a Tacoma (the one in question)? This may be a dumb question and if it is...

Hello all, my name is Ryan and I am new to the forums. As a matter of fact, I am new to the world of Toyota. I recently went for a little ride with a good friend of mine and I guess you could say I caught the "bug". So here I am, starting my first project. I have been reading and reading and...

More than I want to spend but not out of budget. I bought a 2016 Ram 2500 mega cab diesel 2 weeks ago, and I'm almost at 50% equity. So with that, I took out a little extra to play with. Had intentions on doing a pretty big lift and wheels/tires on the truck (Potential Sema build around $17,000...

That's what I thought too..... But he said it was because they didn't have the tools for it and had to outsource it to a Toyota dealer. I don't know the county fees but TN sales tax on vehicles is 7% I believe. If I can get it OTD for $5,900.... is that reasonable?

I looked at it yesterday and told them it was a little more than I wanted to spend. They have a $550 dock fee due to a sensor they had to have replaced.... Plus taxes buying in-state and county fees..... I offered $5,400 cash and they told me they were at $6,400 OTD.

Well given the mileage, I assume that it has to of been replaced at least once. That is just a guess though, so don't take that to heart. They are asking $6,700. But I believe the price is negotiable. It does not have a rear locker. A good friend of mine has a shop and all he does is work on...

Please remove if not allowed. I didn't really know where to post. I am looking at getting my first 4Runner. I am pretty picky and I want something that is going to last. I know it is rare to find a factory 5spd so when I saw this one I wanted to check it out. Drove 2 hours and test drove it...
