Long Travel BS Thread

I picked up this 2nd gen tacoma 8" axle for $125. What's the chance a 2nd gen 8" 3rd member will bolt onto a 3rd gen 8" housing?

 

That's the 8" E-locker 29 spline? Might be the same if your original 3rd gen diff was the e-locker. Don't know if they changed the e-locking diff between generations. The open diff that came on other 2nd gen Tacomas is 8.4", which is a little stronger/more common.

 

No e locker. So I guess it's an 8.4?

 

This is the code

 

3rd gen e-lockers are 8.75 I believe, everything else was the 8.4. It might fit if you're a non-OR/pro, but probably not?

 

3rd gen sports with the manual transmission had an open diff in the 8.75

 

after further research I believe it's an open 8.4. if someone knows more please correct me haha

 

I’ve thought about making something… I ripped my carrier mount off also. If there’s enough interest I’ll put something together

 

Appreciate the patience on these. Been getting my teeth kicked in but wouldn’t have it any other way
