So this really isn't a how to question, more of an opinion request....
After reading until my eyes bulged out about disc brake conversions (I have a '66 FJ40 with ball and claw) I decided just to hunt down a stock disc axle. I recently placed my order for a stock FJ40 disc brake axle for about...
I have a '66 FJ40 with the old ball and claw setup but want to do a disc conversion on the front. Looking for a later model 40 housing that can be converted or an axle already with discs in or around Arizona, or at least reasonable enough to ship.

Gents,
