1981 Toyota Trekker - Import Upgrades: Part 1 - Four Wheeler Network
Our ’81 Toyota Trekker 4x4 featured most of the popular aftermarket suspension, steering, and axle upgrades. We were ready to take our Toyota to the next level. We started with the axles of our project in this installment, and in the next installment, we’ll dive in and give you a closer look at the suspension modifications we made. Only a handful of axles enjoy enough aftermarket support that a completely new axle assembly can be built from scratch. Trail-Gear is the only company that has fully embraced the Toyota solid axles from end to end. The company offers everything from beefy hub upgrades, to improved knuckle seals, heavy-duty bolt-in housings, and even complete turnkey axle assemblies. Trail-Gear also offers the heavy-duty Rock Assault housings for Suzuki Samurai and Ford 9-inch applications. Our axles already had some good useable parts that would bolt right up to the Trail-Gear Rock Assault housings, so we decided to reuse some of these components. You can pick and choose only the Trail-Gear axle parts that you need, and nearly all of these heavy-duty hard parts come with a no-questions-asked lifetime warranty. Source: www.fourwheeler.com
