Well now I'm searching new one .. I never ask about it but Boby Long make semi floating cromo rear axles .. ?
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.

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.

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.

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 ..
