Ditto on getting the part # and checking against Detroits site. I assume you want the locker in the rear in which case you want the 8 inch/30 spline model. Mudd Duck 1 has 27 spline listed in his ad so you need to make really really sure about it. It's an awesome deal if it will work, but I'm afraid it isn't what you want. Check it out though.

The Aussie I listed is the right one though I did list the up to '89 4runner listing. You have a 4 cylinder non turbo so you need part # XD-20830 regardless if its listed as 84-89 runner or 79-95 truck etc.

Look again, click any 8 inch non V6 locker and you will get the same part #
http://www.aussielocker.com/make.php.../ee4f/20/.html

The fronts are the 7.5 inch/27 spline (also 2wd rear). Aussie didn't have a part for 6 cyl/turbo 4cyl until recently. Those diffs are different with larger bearings which changes the locker size. They won't work for you. If in doubt, contact Aussie. They will fix you up.

Thanks blu, thats exactly what i needed. I did a little research and found a site that has the history of 4runners, it confirms hat 1990s use the same diff as 86-89s. Hopefully i will be ordering up an aussie soon.

And sorry muddduck, your locker turns out not to be what i was really looking for. Good luck on the sale, and i will let you know if i find somebody that will buy it.

The part # would go a long way toward getting that locker sold. And dang it on the cluster. I need the previous style.

i also have the basic cluster that is just a speedo with gas and maybe temp not really sure if thats what your referring to BLKNBLU. probably not? are you talkin you need it for an 80's vehicle? and the km thing is cool the only prob on the locker is i don't know the part number and neither does my dad who originally was going to use it i just know its good for 4 cylinder pick ups with 27 spline rear ends i don't know about 4runners though

Yeah, I meant that I need (want) one for 84-89 4runner.

On the locker, is/was your Dad's truck a 2wd? If yes, you are correct that it should be a 27 spline 7.5 inch. I'll have to doublecheck before I post whether or not it will fit in an IFS front. I think yes, but I'll doublecheck.

Right, so I poked around Eaton's site and they don't list an application for a Detroit locker for the 7.5 inch at all. After re-visiting muddduck's ad it looks like a Lockrite/aussie/detroit ez locker in a Toyota carrier. So Muddduck, yes it is made by Eaton/Detroit but it is not what most folks mean when they refer to a Detroit Locker. A true Detroit replaces the entire carrier. The ez locker is a "lunchbox" style similar to the lockrite by Richmond or the Aussie by Torq masters. If that is the case, your price is not really that great. They are $269 new, granted yours is already installed in a carrier so there is value in that. Check me out on all this, also see if you can spy the part #811A017 anywhere on it. Good luck.

Looking at that thread I linked again and they seem to be talking about an 8 inch 3rd member. When you look at it tomorrow, see if you can hand count the splines. I have a feeling it's a lunchbox locker of some sort for an 8 inch/30spline 3rd. That would be a lot easier to sell if it is.
