Loads of people have been chatting about axle swaps! Now I can't get it out of my head gggrrrr! I see that ora make trusses and gussets for jimny axles, I've also seen a few sj axles that have been sleeved and trussed! Is it worth putting the time and cost in to strengthening the stock ones or just change them!

I reckon LR axles are well up to the job in standard form and cheap as well.. hilux, landcruiser and g-wagen are all great but hard to find..

£120 each is expensive for landy axles :laugh: I paid £150 for pair when I bought mine & that was with all arms with poly bushes

I seen the mention of having the rear discs with the landy axles yes they do on the 24 spline ones but they don't have hand brake on the axle its on transfer box on them

the other thing to think about with landy axles is the diff ratio you will deffo need a low ratio transfer box
