IdahoDoug Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 On the proper 1 ton axle, are they taper style that can be popped out and regreased? Those are similar to a trailer bearing which I have on my LandCruisers 1 ton full floating axle. So I am hoping for the same type as I am looking at a Toyota motorhome I ton axle next week. I know the "fooly" axle does not - those have to be pressed out and completely replaced. Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linda s Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Have we ever seen a picture of your Sunrader? I do know of a 4x4 Sunrader that was upgraded to full float with a Land Crusier axle. That way he ended up with stock Toyota wheels that matched all around. The shorty had almost the same wheelbase as the Land Cruiser but I don't know if any modifications to the driveshaft were made. Either way modifications are made all the time on driveshafts so I don't think it's a big deal. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdahoDoug Posted August 13, 2023 Author Share Posted August 13, 2023 I have a 21 footer, and that's my hope -finding a LandCruiser donor vehicle, but even parts rigs are worth a mint. So I may snag this 1 ton dually and convert it to single. I had not thought about the driveshaft on it - thanks. Good reminder to check length and flanges to see if it will fit. Any thoughts there?
