And a non-TRD rear end would take these; http://www.precisiongear.com/toyta8.htm
The ring gear on the non-TRD is 1 cm or .39" larger.

There are alot more gear and locker options for the 8" (just speculating since the 8" has been around since the dawn of mankind)

I prefer the 8" just because it has ANY locker option you want. The 8.4 is pretty new. And the D44 is not strictly domestic. The Titan has a D44 variant in the rear.
