^^^^www.lextreme.com you will find your answers here.. read threw his thread the only thing he doesn't list is the price he paid for stuff..
your bell housing is going to run you around 8-9 hundred from down under.
he used a 3.0 clutch and flywheel..
and i don't remember about the shafts..

So I've been told..

GM callipers with e-brakes can't be actuated by the hand lever in Toyota trucks properly, though the GM disc/calliper disc conversions are the most popular.

The Supra calliper setup with the full floater rear is a great option that I was that close to doing except FROR told me that they were unable to find Supra callipers to supply with their chunk kit.

I'm just going to replace all the stock components with stock now.
