Or would i be better to just get a couple of wheel adaptors? The stock pattern is 5 on 5.5 right?
A rough, eyeball, measurement shows 57".
Given workable offset/backspacing, I would use adapters. Easy, strong, cheap, and reversable. Calculate the width by keeping the tire in the stock position.
I use wheeladapter.com

You'll have to consider the stock backspacing (trailer) vs. your Toyota wheel backspacing when deciding width, too.

Hi. I'm gettng ready to buy a new wider axle and will order with the Toyota pattern. So I will need to sell the adapters that I currently have which I think are the exact bolt pattern adapters you are looking for. They have only seen one trip of a few hundred miles and I'll sell them for half price. Pm if you're interested.

M416 - 58 3/4 from drum face to face. 2.28" tube diameter, 1.59" spindle diameter. 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern, 16x4.5" rims
M416A1 - 61.62" from drum face to face. 2.28" tube diameter, 1.06" inner spindle diameter, 1.38 outer diameter. 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern, 16x4.5" rims
I just got finished rebuilding my M416 so I have all of this, plus I changed my axle to an electric brake 6 on 5.5 to fit my toyota rims. the cost was the same as just buying some replacement drums to make the 5on5.5 to 6on 5.5 swap.

Do you happen to know how far the hub sticks out past the drum face?
