Questions and more Questions. Trying to decide if I want to purchase another Yota like an FJ40 or FJ80. I currently own a Doublecab and am not pleased with the lift options do to the IFS. I am wondering if a FJ40 would make a superior off-road vehicle or maybe another model Land Cruiser like a FJ80. I will end up driving this to work 80 miles each way and still would like to tear up the trails. With the Taco it creates problems with the CV's and there is no cheap way of getting around this that I know. Pretty much you would almost need a Chaos lift witch is about 3.6k just for the front end or convert to a straight axle and end up dumping about the same amount. This brings the reason of buying a FJ40 straight axle up front and from what I've heard a pretty sound platform to build from. I've heard issue about cruising 70 mph or above with them but nothing in great deal. I know there are some alternatives for my Taco but have only read a few ideas. One was changing the CV's out with a modified CV shaft with a Porsche joint... I haven't seen any advertise these. So if some can give me the low down I would appreciate it since I still consider myself a novice with the Toy's. I would appreciate if someone could tell me if there is a superior Land Cruiser to the FJ40 and why.
Thanks
