    IMG_1725.jpg IMG_1727.jpg Hi guys. I have a friend willing to give me his oem elocked 3rd member from his 2006 access cab v6 4x4 manual off road. Would it be possible to retrofit that into my 2006 access cab v6 4x4 AUTO rear diff housing? Seems like it’s doable but I’ve read somewhere that the off road manual has 8” rear diff and my truck is 8.4”.

    top pic above is my truck (v6 auto)

    bottom is his (v6 manual OR)

    thanks!

    No not scrapping it haha! His pinion bearing was bad and he already installed an entire replacement 3rd member so he’s getting rid of his original. Would’ve been perfect if I could’ve taken his entire rear axle!:facepalm:
