Tacomas were only built from 95.5 and up.
A 79-95 is simply a "truck."

I'll be the REAL realistic one, here.
You want D60's, cheapness, etc etc?
Go buy a 78 F350, a 94-98 Dodge 2500, or buy a chevy.
All come stock with heavy duty axles, decent engines, and good transmissions.
2/3 will have a D60.
2/3 are cheap to find.

Sounds like what you're looking for is something with the beefy axles to begin with, or you just havent done much research.
