IFS front diff with Aussie

First question, does this sound like a pretty good deal to you guys?

Second question, and this may be a nuB one, but this WILL fit under my 91 PU, right? I'm 99.8% sure it will, but I'm far from a diff expert, and I just want some assurance, lol


"$250. Complete differential, with locker, out of an 95 Toyota 4x4 4runner, 4.56 gears, and Aussie locker and spare oil seal. Functions perfectly!! selling cause its time for a solid axle swap and more lift. locker alone was $250. will fit most ifs 4runners."









I'm going to call the seller tomorrow and ask if the gears are new with the Aussie, or if their original gears with just the Aussie added, AND who did the locker install... those factors may determine if I ask for a lower price




In the end, my plan would be to rock an auto locker in the front, and an e-locker in the rear, and this would make for a good start untill I locate an e-locker with 4.56 gears to retrofit into the rear

lol, yeah I just found it the other day, and was like OOOHH OOOHH OOOHH

4.56 is what I planned anyway, because those will be fine for me even after I go to 33's

on my 31's, it'll be heaven

No it won't fit. Also need to mention that 4.56 gears are really really weak and prone to breaking with any tire larger than a 28"er. That Aussie is also questionable.... I think I read somewhere that they like to break teeth off inside leading to destroyed ring and pinion.


























Send me the info and I'll buy it and check it out for you. *grin*

Just kidding bro. It'll swap in just fine. If you do end up not wanting it let me know and I'd love to have it to swap into my runner.

Um from what I have heard though, you are gonna have a he'll of a time finding a 4.56 e-locker. But really good find on the front, you will dig 4.56's, especially with the power you are putting out. You will start chirping the gears Joe Dirt style. Dust off that mullet, sunshine!

oh and if I have trouble locating an e-locker with 4.56's, I can settle for just an auto locker; that's just less I have to wire

I can't tell from the picture.

Does the diff have the ADD system on it? If not, then, do you have manual hubs installed on your rig?

If you don't have manual hubs and the diff is not ADD, then you will have issues with the diff spinning all the time in 2WD.

You might have manual hubs already, I can't tell from your Avatar or from your sig.

Good find. I payed $300 plus shipping for a 5.29/Lockright front IFS diff a few years ago on Ebay.
