tail shafts

Post by whiteknight »

Do all LN106 Hilux's have the same front and rear tail shafts? I mean like does the single cab have the same as the extra and dual cabs? or are some longer than others?

And what is a double cardinal joint? they are only in the front? what other type is there?

a double cardinal joint allows greater angle of operation. if you look at your front shaft at the transfer case end, its about twice the size of the other uni's.
