nice truck. i like the longs but for the price i would be looking real hard for a d60. might as well go all the way right?

look on the bright side.. at least you defeated the 4runner sag
I thought about going with one tons, but it's a lot of money. If you can find a cheap D60 front you still have to get a matching width rear axle. Add gears, lockers, highsteer, 8 lug wheels, driveshaft modifacations and a handfull of other items. It all adds up pretty fast.

I already have all of the Toyota stuff and (besides for the Longs) I have all the replacement parts in a box waiting to be installed. The advantages of the Toyota axles over the one tons is weight and clearance. I also don't have a tow rig or trailer, this is driven everywhere it go's.
