hmm, i thought some had divorced cases... oh well. how hard would it be to mate a 62 case to a tacoma then 
worth the extra effort or just run the old gear drive mini truck case and have my driveshaft in the rear run at a stupid angle?

i'm lost? you want to put a lc case behind a tacoma transmission? aren't tacomas driver drop on the front and centered in the rear? again i'm alittle lost on what the goal is.
None are divorced, but they are all "split" style cases. Get a split case transfer case from a FJ60 for manual shift or from a FJ62 for a vacuum actuated unit.

well i have a fj62 with a blown motor i got my axles from, a buddy has probally 20 old gear drive mini truck t-cases in the yard... the thing is which route do i go to get a pass side drop on the tcase. i ended up using my taco axle in my 4runner since it was the bigger 8.4 so i took the fj62 axle and put in the rear of the taco. since i have both diffs on 1 side now i thought about going with my 62 tcase (i have 4 fj40 cases but rather not use them) so that i could keep my driveshafts on one side. if i go with the old mini truck cases to get a pass side drop i will have a center output on the rear shaft and rather not go that route.
Gotcha. Get an adapter to use the FJ62 case on your taco, then either hook up a couple of switches and vacuum lines for the stock configuration or get a manual shift conversion kit for it. Manual shift would be better in my opinion, but why bother buying another whole case when you can just convert the one you have?
I do not know the answer to that question. Give advance adapaters a call.
What is the name of your transmission? A442, H55, etc. Those are both cruiser trannys, but you get the idea.
Marlin would be the guy to talk to, or possibly Cruzilla at Marlin's.

if i was going to do that i would just rip the drivetrain from my fj40 thats all rusted out since it already has a 350 in it but i really wanted to keep is as stock under the hood as i can since the factory engine and tranny just rolled over 100K and are good for alot more. any idea if my driveshft is going to bind like hell going from a center tranny output to an offset rear??
