FJ 80 Front Axle Assembly w/ locker $1000 north NJ

1997 Toyota FJ80/LX 450 complete front axle assembly. Has factory locker. Very clean. $1000. Local pickup preferred. North NJ. Would be willing to go as far south as Long Beach Island off the Garden state Parkway.

 

What’s involved with swapping this into a gen 1 taco?

 

A whole lot..... plus, the centered is on the wrong side, which mean transmission work as well.

 

You would have to do some research but (I think) and could be wrong, but you may be able to do a twin case w 2 adaptors to get the tcase shaft to the pass side. Anyone feel free to let me know if that is incorrect.

 

Yeah, i k ow it’s a ton of work and custom fab. I was dreaming more than anything else. GLWS

 

Sorta. You don't need duels to do it. You only need 1 adapter and that adapter depends on which case you have access to. Advanced adapter makes one for Atlas, Dana, ect ect. Marlin and TG for toyota stuff. For instance the Advanced Adapters set up and a dana 300 would only run about $600-800.

It's doable and as close to a "factory" look as it gets. I've seen it don a few times and looks great with 35s. There's a guy using this exact setup in the 1st gen builds right now, radial arms and all.

If you know your going dual cases too then switching to passenger side drop is no problem. Its easier and stronger to use the older passenger drop gear driven cases. Plus with the elocker axle you can use the ADD wiring harness thats no longer doing anything and already on the front of your truck to control your locker. So theres no need to go buying aftermarket harness or computer to make it work. Aaannd you can run the fj80 rear axle, 9.5 inch ring gear, and have that diff on the passenger side too so you can slide over rocks nice and easy.
