Other think .. well I broke the long one .. but maybe it's a old damage that show right now .. better it occurs inthe garage and not in the trail ..

Any advice are very apreciated ..

Are they full floats or semi-floats? If semi-floats, the chrome-moly inners from Poly-Performance are really nice-I have a season on a set and they were perfect. If they are full floats, then I don't think htere is an aftermarket replacement.

Look here http://www.polyperformance.com/shop/...cat=149&page=1

Sounds like just what you need. Sorry about the $$, but it's cheaper than a new axle shaft from Toyota! Poly used to claim that these axles have never been broken.

Well here the pics of broken axle ..





I thought I'm gonna swap my SF with a FF rear axle .. I found the long one here in Panama, so I start my search of a good one FF axle.

Tapage-What kind of rear locker do you have? I only ask, because I know several people with Detroits and Lockright/Auusie type lockers, where the stress and shock of the lock/unlock breaks the dowel pins and studs in the full float hub. For you, it will be easier and cheaper to run the chrome-moly axles from Poly. One of my good friends is from Panama-maybe she could bring you a pair of axles when she visits her mom early next year. Maybe regular shipping there is cheap and easy, I don't know. Let me know if I can help.

Mmmmm Cruiserdrew .. this is a really good advice.

Ok I'm in ARB front and rear .. as you see 37" MTR planning 39" after my turbo upgrade ..

Here in Panamá most are mud trips and I do with 4 chains in my tires ..

Also I know there are much FF axles with broken studs, failure in torque, intalation or cone washers .. not sure ..

Definately I'm not sure if FF is my solution ..
