PLease help...94 diff in a 90??
 

My 1990 rear end just died. does anyone know if a rear end from a 94 fit? Anyone know what years will fit?
any help would be great,
Thanks

All of the 8" differentials from 79-95 will fit back there. Just need to make sure that the flange matches up.

little more help please...
 

Is the gear ratio the same? and what flange are you talking about....

me <-------noob :flush:

thanks

the flange is the part that bolts up to the driveshaft.

there are a few ways to figure out the gear ratio.
-check the axle code
-spin the tire, count the flange rotations
-pull the diff and count the teeth

more info on the vehicles would help out but http://www.brian894x4.com/Gearratiosanddiffs.html should help you figure out what your ratio is now and you should ask what the 94s ratio is and if they are the same you should have no problems

Any front or rear diff out of a 85 or earlier
Any rear diff out of a 95 or earlier TRUCK
Any rear diff out of a 2001 or earlier 4RUNNER
Any elocker diff out of a 2004 or earlier TRD Tacoma (with modifications to your housing)

Essentially, the only things that WON'T work are T100, Tundra, and non-elocker Tacomas
