You don't state what you are driving on..?

For Highway, 3.90:1 or lower (numerically) and for crawlin, 4.22:1 on up..

Hope you got some tricks up your sleeves to fit 35s on a first gen. 31s all you can really fit with a BL and torsion cranks. Unless you cut fenders.

Does yoter make a Driverside drop axle? Outside of there 8in SFA that came in the trucks I'm not real fimiliar with there SFA's.

If I was gonna keep a truck stock, I'd get a early bronco front D44 that driverside drop, or a old D44 6lug wagoneer, relative same width same pattern same drop side.

Out side of that your looking at divorcing your t case and tranny, wich I know of one person thats done that. And I dont think divorcing one would be very easily done without lots of lift. Tho I know the montero guys can fit a np231 behind there 4cyl auto tranny with about one new seal, so realistically, you could run something pside drop with a married set up.

yota axles are pretty stout...it sounds funny but i have seen people cross drive shafts from the drivers side drop t-case to passenger side third members...seen them in some rock crawlin videos and seen a couple at the mud bogs
