fj80 axel swap?

[dabruin15]

pigs are the way to go huh. I thought they had the exact same axles as the 60s

Yeah, but I hate the 80 series ring and pinion size...

Even in a front axle, being reverse cut (assumption) most of the nasty weight put on the front end is while backing up under power.

The diference in my concept are, if you keep both 9.5" 3rd members, you are able to swap it front or rear .. in a extreme situation.

Tapage, which ring gears are 9.5"????

 

[dabruin15]

do all toyota axels the have the same core. Like are the trucks the same core as a 60, just shorter? I want to order some axel russes from this company that makes the for toyota trucks, I am wondering if I order them, if they will be universal. i know that I dont need them, but its a looks thing. They have the toyota emblem cut into them and they are only $30. Its an over truss not an under.

I prefer not to use sand, it is a bit abrasive for my tastes

9.5 ring .. 8 7/8 is standard in 40 and 60 series .. and rear 80 series.

9.5 ring .. 8 7/8 is standard in 40 and 60 series .. and rear 80 series.

Still confused, 40's and 60's have a 8 7/8" and a 80 has a smaller ring gear than that.

Where does the 9.5 come from?

It probably came from here: http://www.birfield.com/modules.php?name=TLCFAQ&p=/~ramullen/FAQ/TEXT/09-00.html

So the 60's and 40's have an 8.875" ring gear? What do the mini trucks have? I also thought that the 60s and 40s had a ~9.5" ring gear, guess I was wrong? What size ring gear does the rear FZJ-80 have?

 

[Mace]

Rear 80 is the same as a 40, front 80 is mini stuff.


at least I think the rear 80 is the same size as a mini

I was under the assumtion that is was the same as the 40/60series (da rear)

 

[Mace]

Nah, you are right, I meant that the rear was the same size as a 40 not a mini

Front is mini sized.. And reverse cut

 

[lowtideride]

like dooouuu dude.

There is some confusion point about Jap denomination of the ring on a TLC.

Both are the same .. 8 7/8 and 9.5. Where start or are based the 8 7/8 I'm don't now .. but I take in my hands my olds 3.70 and 4.11 and both rigs measure 9.5"

 

[Mace]

that is because you are measuring the top of the ring gear.

That size will differe dependong on the gear ratio...


I know what you mean now..

I have some cruiser stuff and 14 bolt/D60 stuff laying around, I'll try to get pics tonight

yap ..

That size will differe dependong on the gear ratio...

sure .. ? coz I seen in Pressision gear site for example, when it refeer to Land Cruiser R&P set .. refeer 9.5" to all 4.11 to 5.29.
