fj40 suspenison lift

[1978fj40]

magoo, why will this cause so many axle problems if i change to D60, and 14 bolt? not questioning your knowledge, just curious? i am looking at all of my options here, i do NOT want to trim the body at all. I will simply do more lift, and smaller tires, may sound and look a little funny, but it is how i want mine done.

thanks for the help

i was speaking of cruiser axles.d60's will be fine for 42-44's
try and get you an old 1ton chevy that runs with a 4spd(sm465)or auto,and you will have what you need.as far as drivetrain goes.

So Brian, that one picture of the flat field and the one rock with you rolled. Does that mean you never found a rock you THOUGHT you couldn't go over? No wonder you are an expert at fixing axles.
