    Someone mentioned them earlier(maybe you), I briefly scrolled through their site.
    Nice stuff for sure.
    They list nothing for Toyota but I'm sure they have axles that are compatible.

      At the present time Currie doesn’t make anything for a Toyota.,

        The weld was probably bad from day one, but having the axle housing braced, would be a good idea, if you do run it hard over large bumps. I would bet the frames on the different wheel base trucks, have different width frames. Ford and GM, probably Dodge, make different width frames for different trucks. I would bet on longer wheel base trucks, the frame are wider.

        To confirm that, you could measure the width of your frame, then find a short bed truck and measure the width of the frame on that truck. Or just park your truck near a short bed truck and look both axles over very well. You may have to measure various things.

          Yes sir, that's the plan.
          Johnny hooked me up with a local guy, we're going to bust out the tape measure tomorrow and compare them side by side.
