Those are different wheels right? The ones we're after are 16" correct?

 

I have kitty litter soaked in both if you prefer a crunch

 

but i am dealing in antiques
and supply is limited

 

Different part numbers but both are 16"

 

confirm gear ratio is the same - other than that...

 

I have a hunch it might be that part number you listed. Well, I'll say that's prolly our best shot on a part number. That one image in your post earlier looked like it too. Or was the se7enine picture?

 

i'd check miles on it and quality of the diff fluid. Long as they been keeping up on the diff fluid changes and not bashing it for 200k miles u should be gtg imo

 

Actually, I think it's going to end up being @se7enine find. His part number specifically mentions Chrome Package and that is what the wheel was included in.

 

Fack i wish i didnt have today off. Already done with the chores and I'm hungry again after eating 3-4 hours ago

 

If it comes with the harness maybe power the locker on and check that it works

make sure the gear ratio matches your front, I would probably drain it too and see what comes out...make sure it's not full of metal shavings and whatnot

 

@Area51Runner and @eon_blue already mentioned to confirm the gear ratio is the same, unless you plan on tearing into it and swapping it out.

There's a way to test the locker outside the vehicle -

Also, if you are going to check the fluid, make sure you remove the fill plug before the drain plug; I've read about horror stories where some drain their diff fluid only to not be able to fill it up because their fill plug stripped. You could always weld a nut to it if you have access to a welder. Just wanted to give you the heads up.

 

That diagram for that part number just didn't look close to the pic of the wheel. Of course diagrams could be off or just not good.

 

That looks like the wheel to me. Remove center cap and that's gotta be it.

 

Dude this link/pdf is great. That's the wheel right there. It's funny, you see all the available wheels prolly daily, but not ever that one wheel we seek, lol

 

dude... lol. Maybe this diagram is correct (#6) - lol.



seriously though and I don't have it immediately available, there was one which stated at the bottom of the 'chart' - illustrations may no be representative of part or something along those lines.

 

Back to work, I'll be back on in a couple hours....

 

Nice!

Reminds me of when I got new flooring in the other 2 bedrooms early 2019.

 

Bumper still in San Jose? If so, I'll go grab it for you.

 

It's still stuck there, but with the shipping company.

I should call and see if I can get it released or something.

 

Did they say why it's stuck there? Wonder if they just don't have anyone around that can or wants to move it lol
