Will Mini Truck Longfields fit in a FJ62 front axle
« on: Feb 20, 2008, 11:03:32 AM »
Hello all

     I have a chance to pick up some Longfields cheap but they are for a Mini truck axle. I have the 30 spline front axle and i know most of the Mini truck knuckle stuff will cross over I was just hoping some one could verrify if they would also fit the FJ62 axle.

       Thanks Fox

Yep - '79-'85 mini-truck uses the same Birf as FJ60/62
'82 pickup, +3, locked, doubled
'82 pickup, IFS long travel, V8
'85 4runner, V8 rock crawler
'88 X-cab, V6

Same birf but I believe the shafts are diffrent lengths. I know the 40"s are diffrent.

The long side of a fj60/62 is the same as the mini. The short side is 2" longer. Longfield makes a longer short side axle to run the 30 spline berfs
