mini truck cv on a bj42 drive shaft

[cruisernerd]

anyone know which mini truck drive shaft cv joints will work with 81 bj42 drive shaft?
i picked a front ds for a mid 80's IFS pickup. the hole centres on the flange are the same, but the mini truck uses smaller bolts.
... thinking i'll drill them out to fit.
also, do the mini-truck use the same u-joints? that's too much to ask for.
thanks,

1983 Mini front cv 2.87 center to center for ujoints gives the best angle.Ive just ordered the u joints for the same ,dont know if they are the same as the 40s and yes drill em to size.

There is not a mini-truck front CV shaft that will bolt up to your Land Cruiser flange.


Pre 1985 60 series used a CV front shaft that will bolt right up to your transfer case output flanges and differential companion flanges.
