    Lots of expensive shit
    I'd post pics of the first gen I did with shocks outside the frame, but my micro SD said fuck you today when I was copying the files and I lost 3500 pictures.

    Mount it forward on the axle and run wheel spacers. With the shock angle it pretty much clears the shock

    Just skip the middle man and go to a 9". I guarantee you'll do it one day anyway.

    yea..but a tundra axle shares the same diff..so more cost effective anyways.

    full 9'' out of what though?? or is it all custom?

    There is a thousand different ways to run a 9". Start with a junkyard out of an econoline. We raced on one for years. I'm running a fully fabbed 9" for the first time now.

    Don't get me wrong I love toyota axles! I ran then for years. There is just so many more options when you go to a 9".

    I have a modified stock drive shaft. It's a 2wd but has a slip yoke in the rear. Also has been machined to separate at the carrier. Tundra drive shafts are weird though

    So you need a custom one basically?

    Tundra axle will just use my stock driveshaft.

    I only have custom because its 2wd and the tundra drive shaft doesn't separate at the carrier like a Tacoma does. If you have a 4wd drive shaft on a Tacoma all you need need is a simple adapter at the u joint too the diff

    Ahhhh I see okay.

    And you still need an adapter even though it's the same rear diff?
