Rear Axle flange Differences Taco Vs Mini

[Isotel]

this is a strange question, but do taco's have the same Axle Flange mount/ or Rear Axle Bearing as the minitrucks?

Im looking to Bolt a Tacoma Shaft into the outer Section of a Mini truck Housing for a Hybrid Cruiser/Mini/Taco Axle


Reason: Cruiser center Section, (Centered diff), and 60" Wide

Yes, same bearing and flange mount:

so is a taco shaft shorter? im cofused in the reasons behind this hybrid

The Taco has a wider rear end. That means longer drive axles.

Good call Isotel. I'm getting ready to build one of these myself.

Sweet, thanks guys, My plan is the Taco shafts, combined with a widened 60 front, with this method

Should give me ~60" wide axles without any spacers and at a mimimal cost, (compared to diamond housings or 1 tons)

It also lets me keep my springs in the same place!
