    Couldn't tell you, the housings themselves are identical width and same differential. The Sequoia had coils and links instead of leafs, but I cut all that crap off with a plasma cutter. But rear disc brakes are gonna be bomb

    Why would you get rid of a linked rear end in favor of anything else?

    Because it's a short arm parallel 4 link with coils. Not really a good setup for a pickup, or really for much flex. I could convert to a long arm triangulated 4 link and coilovers but that adds 2-3k to just my rear alone. When I could put decent leaves on instead. It would be cool to do a coilover rear but not financially viable yet. If I was doing a solid-axle swap in the front you bet your ass I would do a 3 link rather than waste my time putting leaf springs in.

    Isn't the panhard technically a 5th link?

    Technically yes, but no one counts it as part of the system, it just keeps the axle centered under the truck. 3link, 4link, quarter elliptical, they all use a panhard. I guess some 4 links don't use a panhard but they're not really road mannered. It's like a sway bar, that is a link too but it isn't counted. And let's not get into watts links

    Found this RAV4 in the parking lot of Pep Boys; The inspection stickers expired back in January 2018, so I’m guessing something expensive broke that led to it being parked...
