1986 4 runner
The IFS rear diff is about 3" wider than the live axle diff

WRONG

All extra cab lux from 84-88 are solid axle. 88 onwards extra cab were IFS.

someones been reading to many yankie sites

yeah, the late 88 onwards x-cabs and some dual cabs. Not sure when the SR5 dual cabs come with IFS. Does anyone know if this was an option or wether Toyota changed them all over in the later SR5's?

oh, so it has to be a 88 Xcab to get IFS.

dang, that makes it a bit harder.

so, can i get a straight answer here?

is it the 1988 xtra cabs or the 92 SR5 duall cab?

well from what i gather all extra cab utes from the very late 80's LN RN 106 were IFS and then in the mid early 90's they changed the SR5 dual cab to having IFS. From what i gather the chassis arent too much different just the suspension and steering.

If your building a custom suspension set up since the IFS doesnt have much travel to start with, you could start off with either and setting it up how you want.
