rear full floater

[MiniPigg]

Im kinda bummed my 70 didn't come with the rear full floating axle.

Yeah bummer, mine had the factory FF, swapped it out for a 60 series FF housing for more width.

Did you have to relocate the rear axle pads?

 

[Hulsty]

Sure did, need to also use the 60 series hand brake cable and long side axel.

RR FF axle housings can be hand new from Toyota.

hmmm.. mines an 85 BJ70. If I may ask is there a part number? For now the only part number I find for the 70 series rear ff housing are no longer available. However the axle shafts and other parts seem to be.

They are from the newer trucks. But it works on older trucks: 42110-60E80

Spring perches have to be cut off and rewarded and your backing plates, parking brake cable and brake components will need to change. And you’ll need hubs/drums/axle shafts/brake lines, etc. It's pretty intensive operation. But doable.

Or, try to find a housing here in the states. 60 series will work but with a wider stance, and you'll still need to change a lot of things. A 40 series FF rear axle housing will work, but will need to modify spring perches. ETC.
