will 86 IFS shocks fit on 85 w/ solid axle??

im going to purchase an 85 runner with a solid axle, but it has no shocks on it... i have an 86 now and was wondering if i could use the shocks off of it to get the truck home???

You can drive it with out shocks, it will probably just be a bit bouncy on the road.

You cant use the IFS shocks, but as Myota said you can drive it home, keepit under 100.
