I have an 1985 4runner solid axle that I would like to put a Detroit EZ Locker into from the rear of my 93 truck. Here are the specs:

1993 Truck, 22RE, 4.10 gearing, manual transmission, Rear 8 inch diff

going into...


1985 4runner, 22RE, 4.35 gearing, automatic transmission, 8 inch front diff

Can it be done (easily)



Thanks,
JAREDL

If they were the same gear ratios it would be as simple as swapping over the third member. The Lockrite itslef will fit in the 85, you'd just have to swap it over. I don't think you even have to redo the gears IIRC.

Thanks for the responses. I will be keeping the truck (in fact, the original gears have been restored and the locker removed). By "Easy install" I meant that I won't have to do extra shimming/welding/etc.) It probably wont be an easy install for me since I have never done this before. The most that I have done was removed the axles and replaced the seals. Since I have to do that again, I figured I might as well slap a locker in there that otherwise has just been sitting around.
