can u put a t-100 rear diff on the 87 4runner? Does the t-100 also have a 8" rear end w the same gear ratio? if theres allready a build thread pls send me a link. tryed to search too much junk that has nothing to do w what im looking for

 

I believe the T-100 had the same 8" diff as the minitrucks. the only difference was the design of the housing on the outside. I have a rear diff from a 1997 4runner in my '93 Pickup and supposedly the T-100 8" was the same as the 3rd gen 4runners so im pretty sure it will bolt up and work. It uses the v6 style gears

 

No...

 

Ya that's a big N O on that swap, t100 uses an 8.4 diff with 10 mm bolts so ya

 

Been there, tried that, got the hat, had to sell the truck, AND got butt hurt from Toyota when I realized () my V6 Hilux diff wouldn't fit, and called for a price of the T's rear gear...$900 IIRC.

Had factory 4:87's and I was too scared to get a A.M 4:88...



OOOUCH!

 

Here, I'll do the work for you. Save this link to faves in case you have any other Toyota axle questions.

I just want to swap the axle, all parts from the t-100 intact, to match the blazland LT kit in the front 3" on each side. I belive it's 6" total longer and should have the same wheel bolt pattern. I just need to match the gears for the 4x4. the e brake should be the same too i would think? and tabs are ez to weld

 

Oh then yes you can do that. Anything is possible lol, but shouldn't be that hard of a swap if your using the whole axle. Just probably new springs perches, redrill your axle flange (maybe) and match the gears. It'd be stronger then the 8 inch you have now too. As for the e-brake you'll have to extend the cable probably
