79-85 Toyota front axle. Go do a search for Toyota SAS on Pirate4x4.com. You will find more info than you know what to do with. Read it, then read it again. And don't ask questions there.

cant use an old yota axle.the driveshaft has to come out on the drivers side on a tacoma instead of the pass side like all the older toys.not sure which is the best axle to use but i think alot of tacos are done with full width ford axles with a driver side drop.

Ive seen a lot of these lifted with a solid axle in the front. Your gonna want to use a drivers drop dana 44. There are some out there that are the width you need. Search pirate 4x4, theres a TON of info there that you could use to build a nice SAS for a tacoma.
