    Yes they did come with different diffs. The T100 used a 7.5" passenger drop low pinion diff that is pretty much the same as what you would find in a 95 and down pickup or 4Runner. The 96+ Tacoma and 4Runner came with a clamshell 7.5" driver drop high pinion diff that is completely different from the previous gen.
