Its a bit of a white elephant that. Its a Torsen unit with a chipped ring gear tooth attached. It loots VERY much like a Toyota 8", but I've never seen the other Japanese truck diffs (only seen Toyota). I can't tell whether its a V6 or a 4cyl diff, but Zuk might be able to tell. Not many Torsens around. Can't buy them new I don't think any more.

Quaife made similar diff to the torsen, but I've never heard of one for a Toyota 8".
