All - some questions for axle gurus ...... Landcruiser - 105 to 80's
Quick question - the 105 has solid axles same as the 80 - but with 5 stud hubs... is there any other difference?? could I swap bits and bobs off an 80 axle into a 105 axle without a problem... or can I do a complete axle swap without a problem... are all the chassis mounts for the front and rear axle the same ?? Is the 105 front diff CWP stronger ?? or suffers the same front weakness as not being same size as the rear...
Reason in regards to the questions - I have spare sets of 80 wheels all 6 stud - if an 105 popped up that I was to consider buying - how easy is it to sort out the 5 stud to 6 stud issue... what I'm seeing is steel wheels on the 105 at the moment - and I'd like to stay with my alloys ... as I have 10 of them... with 4 brand new tyres on a set..
Thanks - any pointers would help - Regards - Denis
