If anyone in California knows I-15 then you know how busy the traffic can be. I was headed southbound in San Diego when my tranny fucked up and my rearend locked throwing me into a skid. I did a 180 that put me facing traffic then slid around and was headed back into traffic on the 15. Somehow I managed to end up in the only safe spot to stop without hitting anything or getting creamed by oncoming traffic. Needless to say I'm pissed cause my T-5 was brand new 4 months ago and the rear is toast. My upper link bar that controls my pinion angle bent all to hell and the driveshaft ripped out of the 3rd member. Anyways, I'm ok but I'm broke and looking for another toyota rearend. Currently mine is from a 88-95 and I'm looking to get another 3rd member. I also would like to narrow it or get a narrowed one new or used. Maybe a 9-inch. Basically does anyone have anything for sale or know where I can pick one up or get a nice one built for fairly inexpensive. I'm looking for an axle that's 2-4 inches narrower then stock. The trucks basically just layed out at a friends house for now. Hit me up if you know of anything. Thanks

Bobby nice to know you didn't get hurt out there. Look up Nate from Defiant Customs(Hemet,Ca) and he might be able to help with another rear-end. His number is 951-809-5080

Thanks Chris. I'm suprised more people don't have any info for me. Thanks for the number and can't wait to see your truck at reso. Pretty sure mine won't b there unless is gets towed and it's not really worth all that hassle to tow it. Later FNG

Not to much done since the last time you saw me...except the gapping hole in the roof. After reso it goes away to extreme audio and to albert designs to paint. like to say it would be done by forbidden or danger zone but I won't jinx it
