Taco Solid Axle Kit...

Take a look at the PBB vendor section for pricing and availability on the FRORF Taco swap kit and the new custom axles that take Toyota thirds.

Now people who run 5.29's can match the front instead of hitting 5.38's in the Dana axles.

I am not afiliated with Mr. Ellinger and will not receive reimbursement, but for as much big talking as goes on here, I thought it to be worth pointing out.

I saw you mention the wide front kit on your swap. How did that work for you? I really want to avoid spacers and have been looking at it or Sky's similar product. If you could start a thread or some other sort of thing, that would be great.

There's not much to it, they just bolt on like any other spacer except they're on the other side of the wheel hub. The wheel studs don't change at all. The 6 old bolts (new bolts are supplied) that were used to hold the disk to the IFS wheel hub are what hold it on, and then you bolt a FJ40 vented disk to the spacer. Front Range's kit has a lip machined into it to center everything and the quality of the work is excellent, Sky makes a cheaper version of this spacer kit but I don't think his has this centering lip at all.
