Tacoma CV axles

Hello all, I've used the search and found a lot of unfinished conversations on the topic.

I'm in the US and have access to many CV axles for the Tacoma. From what I gather they are 10mm longer than the Lux ones and have the same 30/30 spline count.

Does anyone know if the Tacoma CVs will fit my 08 KUN26 without issues? I have 2" of lift and was hoping they would be a drop in fit.

Just looking to save a boatload on shipping costs and have more options, Thanks!

Its a good question... 10mm longer shouldnt be a problem as long as you get bo binding of the tripod (pushing the tripod into the diff) through the suspension cycle.

I guess your best option is to get one and see if you have any issues. I hope it works but I have some doubts as we can't run the CVs out of prados and FJs as while everything looks similar, it isnt.

Thanks, if no one chimes in I'll take some measurements at the auto parts store when I get them removed and reply to this post so it'll be here for anyone searching it in the future.

That would be great.

For info, this thread from a while back talked about RCV doing some specific hilux CVs so maybe there are differences...

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
