Jack A2, Pulling the rear axle assembly from the bone yard flat bed
would be the ideal way to go, get the springs and all. The axles,
hubs, ect. from the 1 ton won't interchange with the stock toyota
rear axle, the 1 ton floater is physically bigger with gussets welded
onto the axle tubes for added support and also have the brackets
welded onto the housing for the sway bar if one wanted to install
that too. The gear ratio's are the same and the driveline connection
should bolt right up, if not the flange off the Sunrader stock rear
will fit on the floater, just remove the pinion nut, exchange the
flange, and replace the pinion nut, Make sure to use a new nut,
torque to specs and stake it in place and your in business.
One note I might throw in concerning the floater rear axle that
some owners might not know is, the rear wheel bearings are "NOT"
lubricated from the gear oil in the rear end, they are a grease
packed bearing the same as the front wheels, and should be checked
and packed on a regular basis.
