Why would you want to shorten it then?

The surf has a wider front track than a hilux.

I am building a bigger front diff for the IFS.

Thanks for replies, have found a couple of places.

Now just need to try to source some T100 axles from the USA. Postage is nasty from the US. How do other people get parts from the US?

The Axles I want are $200 but the postage is $400!!!

Cheers

Not interested in SAS,

The plan is to use a cruier front diff with hilux axles shortened to suit. no more weak IFS front for me :)

So far all works in theory, will find out on the weekend how it goes in practice.

Cheers anyway.
