98 4R Rear Axle/eLocker Swap
Well, I blew out my rear diff two nights ago. Luckily I had already secured both a front and rear axle (w/ eLocker & 4.30 gears) when I got the truck.
I will try to take some pics and update this thread when completed. Right now I need to know if there are any tricks I need to know to yank the rear axle out. Any suggestions or experience welcome. Any special tool or size that I may need to remember to take with me to go get it? I'll just be taking it out of the donor truck today and bringing it home.
Trucks are '98 and '99 4Runners. At least I'll have a locked rear soon.
Thanks in advance.

it's a pretty straight foward swap, if you need a e-locker wiring harness got to Marlins Crawler's site, they have them in stock.
The front diff is a bit tricky and the only special tool is for an allen bolt underneath.
