Land cruiser to 4r axle swap

Does anyone know if the straight axle from a newer land cruiser is the same as toyota truck and 4r's. And is it worth the money.

No.

Yes.

You'll need the rear to match.

Its SUA from the factory and wider than the mini truck axles. It uses the 9.5" diff, but other than that the rest would be the same. You will need custom Tie-rod and draglink as well though.

IMO, its a stronger axle than the mini because of the 9.5" ring gear. Nothing else is stronger though.
