I have a cut down D60 front that I'm swapping into my FJ40 and I am thinking of also swapping in an FJ80 FF rear axle with disc brakes (I found a cheap one). Would the FJ80 rear be strong enough to hold up to a 350 and 40" tires or should I just forget it and go with a D60 rear?

as far as strength a 80 FF is about the same as a 40-60 rear axle(SF), only gaining the FF and OEM locker possiblilty

Would about the alignment of the FJ80 pinion that is 2-3" closer to the center then the rest!!

D60's and 14 bolts are cheap so why even consider?
