Sorry if this an absurd question, or if it’s been asked before. What exactly does it mean “get the Full-Float“? Will any dually full float axle work? I feel like I’ve looked at every forum post and can’t come up with a clear answer. I’m pretty sure my rig is a 2wd 1980 18’ Sunrader. I know I have the bad axle, but not what will work to replace it. Any help getting pointed in the right direction is appreciated.

Hello all, Relatively new to the the bohemian Toyota motor home world. I picked up an 85 Toyota Sunrader for $1500 last year only intending to use it for a couple of week at burning man and sell it on. It had been left up for years so was in rough shape. but no rust and engine was good apart for clutch, hoses, tires etc. anyways i developed a soft spot for the old girl and hence the restoration. shes nearly back in pristine shape after extensive work mostly on the inside and rewiring. It has the old 5 lug dully axle that never got recalled so i want to change it out ASAP. I need to know options for axle's Possible Plan: Change axle to 1 ton single axle if possible ( Dont want to deal with so many tires and spares ) Lift it 2-4 Inches (Body lift) Increase tire size possible conversion to 4x4 if i still have it in a few years and wanted to invest the cash. Question is what axle could i use that wont break the bank?? Need to be cheap Have option for a locker or posi Any info would much be appreciated. Some pics of my rig will need to upload from Picasso later
