"Agreed, also keeping my eye out for a set of 60's

Might just throw the toy axles under my FJ40 or sell them to offset the cost of going 60's"

Yeah I keep going back and forth on this. Its a common problem for the guys that wheel alot and have the serious gear setups. I want to run 60's but have to keep saving my pennies. I'm going to keep wheeling the toyota as is till I get another sweet side job then I will be getting all the parts I need and selling off the stock 8" toyota axle.

If you keep it light then the toy axles should be fine. but it might be a lot of work and more money to keep it light enough.

just build it and upgrade as needed. Look at this way, it may be a year till you get it built enough to even have to worry about going with bigger axles.

you both are right. I plan on continuing to wheel it as is cause at the moment it seems to work good and give a good challenge. I will up grade it in some way in the future once the funds are there. I'm kinda hoping I will come across a deal where some guy is upgrading to 60's and I can pickup a built front for cheap.
