you can prob use one from a 4runner or short box, but with the added torqu and strain of such low gears, and off road use, it would be a better idea to have a driveline made with a thicker wall tubing, toyotas only have 32nd wall tubing stock, only slighly thicker than sheetmetal, so spend the extra few bucks for some peace of mind, i can slam the crap out of my d-lines and know that ill be able to get home with no vibes or damage!! :beerchug:

For the price of U-joints and metal, about 50 bucks per shaft. You can run 1/4 inch square drive shafts front and rear and never worry about it. Then leaving the trail, slap on your highway shaft that takes less abuse and no vibration.
