If you don't mind. I've still got to decide on fixing the 20 versus starting new with a 44/9

Kevin, if it helps (or you didn't know), it will have the same 6 lug wheel as Toy/GM. Used to be claimed to be a good swap to get rear disks on a Yota, almost direct bolt-in with a conversion u-joint if I remember the article correctly

yup, just as farm boy stated, it's a 6 bolt, and has a more adaptable flange. there are some some apparent differences from the domestic D44 that make it a stronger design including thicker ring gear and D60 width pinion shaft (pinion shaft? I think that's the word!)

Yeah, I meant more on the R&P side, and IIRC, the caliper hose bolt (banjo bolt?) it a weird metric size compared to what's on the domestic stuff. Didn't know that the pinion itself was larger too. I just need to figure out if swapping rims and rebuilding the rear is a better idea than swapping the front Waggy to 5 bolt and throwing a spool in the 20.
