Would This Axle Work And Would It Be Worth It?
Would this axle work on a '94 PU? I'd probably have him just pull the 3rd memeber and ship it.

well yea because thats the 3rd that goes with it, so yea it should work, but since i am not confident on my answers, let someone else back this up.

the tundra axle is over 10" wider than a '79-85 rear end, and 7" wider than an '86-up rear. however...aren't the shafts the same thickness and 30 spline? i'd think with that kind of setup, you could have the axle housing cut down to the right size and use your current shafts and then make the tundra drums and backing plates work with it.
it'd be beefy, that's for sure. the tundra rear end is the strongest 8" toy rear out there

No, The Tundra axle is a completely different axle than yours. The ring and pinion's are different, and the carrier (locker) is different and will not bolt into your housing in any way. The only way this would work is if you replaced the entire rear axle housing.
