simple question guys about my Elocker swap

Okay.... the 3rd member im taking off my rolled truck has stock 4:11 gears... my 97 has 3:91s caaaaaan I... take the ring and pinion off my open rear diff and put it on the e locker? or are they different rings... thanks

 

They're different.
One (open) is a 8.4'', the other (E-locker) is a 8''

 

nope because V

e locker is 8" ring gear

 

okay but the third meber with the e locker will still fit right? i just need the front 410 gears?

 

and btw my rear end is B03A

 

depends on what axle its going in.

the e locker 3rd member needs an 8" specific axle housing. If i remember right the 97s didnt have the diff lock package yet. but dont quote me on that. so the e locker third will only fit in the axle it came in, or another "e locker axle"

 

jk B06A is my 97

 

In the open diff housing? No
In the E-locker housing? Yes

 

B06A is my axel from what im seeing that is a 8"......

 

Im saying taking the whold third member and just bolting it on to my 97 axle which is B06A with all the guts still in it.

 

Swapping the guts?
I don't think it'll work.

 

no.

your trying to put an 8'' Elocker diff in and 8.4'' housing. Won't fit.

 

let me say it again lol.. I have a 2004 trd tacoma that is rolled.... its axel code is a B03A my 97 tacoma is a B06A which means there both 8" rings... i want to take the 3rd member elocker out...(still has the ring and pinion in it) and bolting it on my 97! lol

 

but isnt a B06A a 8" housing?

 

You'd have to swap the whole axle.
you don't have to regear immediately unless you're gonna be using 4x4.

 

ugggh your sure that the elocker third memeber wont slide into my B06A Axle

 

this is simple...did this axle come with an e locking third

if you have one truck with an e locker and one without you need the entire axle

 

techincally yes, they are both "8" housings.

But the ring gears are slightly different and more importantly the pinion is different and how they mount is very different.

it won't fit.
