My buddy I wheel with has a yota and I'm always bustin his balls calling his **** Toys r us axles and Mickey Mouse axles. Honestly they are some tough little bastards though. He rarely breaks anything.

zukimaster said:Yall boys keep in mind JD has a FJ 80 front, a whole lot beefier than a 8'' toy axle! but you get those tires in a bad bind! **** gonna break! That ride was Mo's first run with 1 tons in a toyota truck with a 4cyl. and he broke a stock 14 bolt axle!
bamatoy said:No he broke a 30 spline factory rear 60 axle. Yota rear AXLES are beefier than a stock 60
muddinmetal said:This is pretty much true. Also I believe a Fj80 Longfield axle shaft is way stronger than a chromo 30 spline 60 front fwiw
TBItoy said:That part that Josh broke on the FJ80 axle is actually quite a bit smaller... FJ80s are 24 coarse spline at the birf.
Yeah, his were chromo, but they are still a small axle out at the birf.
Yes, the FJ80 birf is much bigger and stronger than a FJ40/60/Pickup birf, but unless you have one of the very few unicorn 30 spline FJ80 birf sets that Longfield sold right before he died, then the axle shafts aren't any stronger than a mini truck axle...
TacomaJD said:I think RCV sells a 30 spline FJ80 axle kit now too. I was wondering about that. What exactly does it take to convert to it? I think it says something like Big 24/30 spline. Is the splines that go into the carrier still 24 spline and then the shaft maintains a solid big diameter all the way to the birf splines (which are 30 spline?), instead of necking down to a smaller diameter like mine, and then the splines on the stub shaft are 30 spline too? or are they 24? If they are 30, where do you find an aftermarket 30 spline drive flange, I've never seen an aftermarket fj80 flange.
TBItoy said:splines at diff are 30 spline already, on all 8" Toyota diffs. All stub shafts are 30 spline also, all straight axle drive flanges and hubs are 30 spline.
The only difference was inside the birf.
Mini truck is 27 spline (fine spline)
FJ80 is a big 24 spline (large diameter, coarse spline)
