Tundra Control Arms?

Hey,

Would the front control arms off a tundra fit on the 4runner? More specifically, would the stock front, upper and lower control arms from a Tundra (similar year to the 3gen 4runners) mount to the same location of the stock 4runner ones? Also, would a tundra CV axle fit into the front diff on the 4runner. Im pretty sure the tundra arms are longer as well as the CV's, and if they would fit, and if they are longer, you could get another 3-4 inches of droop and have less steep CV angles. What do you think?

Im kind of thinking the tundra a-arms are the same, and that the frame is wider on the tundra. I know tundra cv's will work and are longer, and that the tundra uses the exact same ifs diff.

Im sad to say it, but im not thinking this combo would work

i'm gonna go out on a limb and agree with Crolison...kind of like the T-100 just has a wider frame than the pickups..but the same suspension...

Just went out and measured my dad's Tundra arms. They are the same, so no extra travel by using 'em.
