    He would just remove the FJ axle tube and install the Tacoma axle tube. Only the manual FJs came with fulltime 4WD so most of the FJs have the exact same front end as the Taco.

    That was my first impression but it actually came with a complete bushing install kit instead of just the one size I need

    Really up to you, I was going to knock it out tomorrow unless you guys wanted to see it get installed

    I wouldnt mind checking it out. Maybe i could get ecgs to ship another bushing to you so we could do both? Ill just pay the extra for overnight or 2 day shipping. Let me know if youre opposed or ok with that and ill see what theyll do.
    Another 26 hours of being awake, i like it!

    Sounds good, if you can't get the bushing in time you can just borrow the tool. I take it you'll be around a little longer?
