The new issue of 4wd & sport utility just installed it in their truck, looks good did you get the CTM joints?

No CTM joints at this time, If I planned to keep it I would get the u-joints but not planning on installing....

I do not have any pictures of the kit since the entire thing hasn't even been unpackaged. I took out individual pieces to make sure they were there and to see what parts  would be needed to make stub shafts but that is it..... it is honestly identical to the kit in the birfield eliminator story in Petersens 4wd magazines.

I am wondering if you still have the kit and do you know if it will fit a 81 land cruiser with the front disc brakes.

I do have the kit, I do not know if it will fit the '81 cruiser. My understanding is the width is the problem. Mini's axles are a little wider than at least the drum braked cruisers and unless the mini disc brake conversion was done the mini axles couldn't be used. sorry I do not know, (my '66 wouldn't be able to take the kit.

I apologize that I do not have a head to head comparison on strengths. I know that they are stronger than the stock birfields by a signifigant margin with increased turning radius. Compared to the longfields I can not stated. I believe that theyare comperable or very close to the same strength. I know there was a write up beginning of the summer but do not remember if they compared them!
