My friend just picked up an 84 toyota truck with a D44 in the front and a D60/Toyota hybrid in the rear. I've never heard of such a hybrid, is this common?
As far as I know, it has a D60 axle housing with a toyota axle from a 90ish toyota truck complete with toyota drums. It was re-splined to fit the D60 gears (I think).
Are toyota axles that strong...enough to compete with the D60?
