Yodamankp, I would say it is possible to run a 12 bolt and D44 in a Toy if there is not much weight left on it. I run a D44 and a 10 Bolt in my buggy with 38.5's and they are holding up, but I have never beat it or wheeled hard with it because on the axles.
Right now I have a set of 1 ton axles going to go into it (D60 front and D70 rear).

If you are hard on your gear and are looking for width with plenty of strength... I'd go for 2 D60's or a D60 and a Corp. 14 Bolt, or you can go with what I have which has a great amount of gear choices and is extremely strong (gears go all the way up to 7.17's)

Thats my :twocents: I might end up going d60 and a d70. I already have a ff d70. I just didnt want to give up my beadlocks.But I guess it is a small price to pay fo strength.BTW they will be going under a second gen 4runner that already has had an sas done to it.
88 Toyota truck ( Under Construction ) Dana 60's front and rear 5.38's, welded diffs, 3inch Downey rears up front,one link rear with aerostar coils rolling on 39.5x16.50/17 Pittbull Rockers and 17x9 Pro Comp extreme alloys.http://board.marlincrawler.com/index.php?topic=40816.0
