LT idea!
i've been doing some research on using the CV axles from a supra in order to be able to fabricate an elongated a-arm setup.
i was hoping to trigger some good thought with this thread so any input or ideas are of course welcome. i'm looking for numbers and lengths right now. btw, this idea was sparked when i was looking at a picture of an awesome 4wd LT 2nd 4runner. |
Why reinvent the wheel? There are tons of kits out there from Total Chaos, JD Fabrications, and Downey - just bolt em on and go!

i know, and i think you know that i know,......but why not?

Kinda like how Downey uses the porsche cvs? IF the width was right, because those bad boys can hold up to 800hp. Also they have to be able to work at "extreme" angles.

Oh - that was the Downey rig ... had the tcase relocated to the center of the truck via chain drive.
WICKED huge travel, but took A LOT of work to make it that way ... |
oh i know.... what i was thinking though, is: shorten the width of the ifs cross-members so that the supra differential could mount in there. custom a-arms would be fabbed to work with the supra axles. as for the driveshaft i think it could be run at a angle (side to side, not just up and down) since it would be stationary. no?

Sure, anything can be done with enough time and money ... I still gotta ask - what's the benefit of all the extra wrk?
