It's an interesting idea...not the Supra part. I read one time that the author of some magazine was impressed with their chase truck at a Baja race, an Expedition all independent, so they got ahold of one of those rearend setups and put it on a sorta desert built F150. Can't remember the magazine that did it, but they were impressed with the results. Heh, get ahold of a Hummer rearend setup, they're independent!
