how hardi is it to swap supra rearend on tacoma

just wondering how hard would it be to swap out rearends plan on doing hydros with bodydrop any feedback would be appriciated

Well you'd have to back-half your truck pretty much.

check out some of the reader profiles and you'll see that the supra rear end requires upper and lower arms, mounts for the uppers have to be fabbed and that doesn't even count the possibilty that you'll have to modify the axle. Other taco's use the RX7 rear end because the reear dif, axles and trailing arms can be unbolted from the donor and you can redo your rear end to addapt to that set up and you'll still need to redo your drive shaft. Here are some examples http://www.streetsourcemag.com/ViewOwnerProfile.aspx?Home=true&Profileid=27156 http://www.streetsourcemag.com/ViewOwnerProfile.aspx?Home=true&Profileid=4304

ow hell, lets be honest, its almost a bolt in. LOL

the supra rear end it too wide and has to be narrowed. but hey what do I know. I only watched my friend do his

does anybody remember the link to the silver tacoma tubbed out with the turbo supra engine in it? I seen it once and havent found it since. its like turbotacoma.com or something i think

Matt,
The site is www.supratrucks.com i believe and as a matter of fact that truck is for sale! It ran a 9" rear though. The truck I cant find here on SSM is the one done by "stksuks" with the full frame and supra IRS on 20's. Anyone???

here it is that my buddy de deleted all his pic but there are a few on here.
