Hello from AUS tall ratio 8 in diffs

Hi there im Dave from Australia ,im pleased to have found these forums.
Im trying to find what model 2WD hilux trucks came with tall diff ratios .
Im in need of 3.07 to 3.42 ratio in a 8 inch C&P, I searched and found a photo of a vin plate from a RN50 that had a 3.07 8 in diff and that would suit but was told most are 7.5 inch diffs .
Im trying to find the model code of a V6 2WD pickup 1991 which has a tall diff , it has a 3VZ-E engine , im trying to find out if this would have a 8in or 7.5 in diff in it but being a V6 id say 8 inch . VZN85 or 90 ??
Thanks in advance
Dave

You may have better luck posting this in the classifieds on this site. that is a rare thing to find as well. Can you not just buy the gears and stick them in your current 3rd?

What are you looking to spend? I know a guy that has a Toyota truck parts yard. I can see if he has anything.

im not sure if this is still active but you can try:

techsite@toyotasurf.asn.au

this chaps name is reece and has done some pretty nice stuff to a couple of his runners. let him know that leebee from yotatech passed along his contact info.

failing that, you might want to check out www.4crawler.com as i found the original link through there while researching ball joint spacers.

keep us posted on your progress.

Thanks guys good to on here.
Not really fussed on price as i was considering new gears.
I have a 8 in hilux 2wd diff thats in a corona mark 2.
I mainly need to make sure that the V6 2WD hilux deffinatly has a 8 in diff and not a 7.5 and what model it is.
