    yes you can!!!!
    i figured it out!
    i have manual hubs and have tundy axles in my truck right now with it all together. i ahvent had a chance to run them yet

    You must have OEM tacoma axles, and OEM tundra axles, as long as you have that, the spline counts will be the same.


    on a manual hub tacoma you must swap the tacoma outer CV joint onto the tundra axle shaft. as long as you have both OEM cv axles, the spline counts will be the same!


    when i called Mike at ORS he told me the same thing.



    ***note-- i have not ran them yet, but they are together on my truck, i am waiting for brake lines.




    trucks looking good man!!

    so a set of OEM manual cv's and a set of OEM tundra cv's (i am pretty sure all tundras are ADD right?) then just combine the the Tacoma ends with the tundra mid shafts?

    Yes and no, the spline count is the same but cv it self is stronger on the tundra.

    Ya don't know why I said yes and no...lol b

    Was merely saying ya splines r same but the tundra cv is a stronger cv then the tacoma. So manual hubs have advantage of unlocking hubs, add has stronger tundra lower and upper cv. :D

    Ya I guess it's alot better cause when you unlock the manual hubs then it completely disconnects the axels from the drive so there is no ware! And Tacoma is always engaged except the drive gear in 2wd

    yes you are correct.

    and cut off the inner lip of the tundra inner cv joint so you can fit the new boot
