I found and purchased a ff dually axle. However, I am now seriously considering going to single wheels on the back of my Scat. As Linda suggested this to me, I am hoping that she might be able to advise as to what year of single axle I should be looking for? Perhaps others have an idea?
TIA, especially Linda.

Hi all,
I recently bought a 1976 Scat Toyota with a 20R 5-speed. It has the foolies. I have located a 1988 Toyota FF dually axle. Can anyone here let me know if there will be compatability issues and, if so, what adapter parts would be necessary? Is there a better donor axle that I should be looking for?
Thanks,
Colin

Hi All,
Just joined up. Had been looking for a Sunrader 18, then stumbled across a 1977 Scat and pulled the trigger. I am not sure what I have gotten myself in to. Does anybody else here have one? Any manuals to share, please?
Thanks,
Colin

First of all, thank you so much Linda. I haven't yet been able to compare the connections as I am at work.
I have a couple of follow ups to your offerings:
-Assuming that the connections match, it seems that you are suggesting that any toyota "mini" truck axle can be made to work? Is that correct?
-As for a tracking increase, from the hilux wiki it appears that anything 1978 and beyond would actually increase the tracking.
-What do you mean by "2wd" if you want your wheels to match?
-As to gear ratios, the Scat is actually a five speed. Are you able to address how this might effect things?
-And finally, I am pretty damn sure you know what you are talking about, but I have to ask if anyone here believes that I need to stay dually (ff, of course) for extra safety?
Again, I am eternally grateful.
Sincerely,
Colin
