Rear Axles bent!!!!! HELP!!!!!

I ended up rolling my 97' 5 speed sr5 4runner a little while ago. got her all put back together an she don't look bad. My rear axles got bent in the roll, wondering if there are any good aftermarket axles out there and how hard it would be to replace them. was thinking about maybe going big and changing rear to disc brakes but that would involve a lot more work and money. I also don't have a locker and want one bad. so maybe i should just replace the whole rear end with a new axle that includes a locker. don't know what to do and need help

A direct bolt on replacement should be fairly easy to find for not a lot of coin. Check craigslist and your local yards.

Unless your running pretty big tires and wheeling it hard, there really is no reason to go bigger.

easy fix. Poly performance has them cheap.

Your welcome.

Where it gets expensive is all the bearing and seals from Toyota. espically the ABS. (which I ended up not using to save $$)
