Re: TOY: Full floater kit?

Drive around your neighborhood and check all the local gardeners' trucks.
Those little 2wd toyota duallys are a dime-a-dozen in the SoCal gardening
scene.

And no, the wheel bolt pattern is different. As someone else mentioned,
it's something like 6 on 8", way larger than the standard toy 4x4 axle.
On the 3rd member, I concur that it appears to be a standard 8" chunk. The
axle tubes themselves are gusseted on the underside, sort of like the
84-85 front axle gussets.

If anyone's really interested (I'm not yet) I believe Longo Toyota in
SoCal built many of the stake-bed duallys running around here, and may be
a source of info on parts etc.
