Axle question

Okay im new to the forum and this is my first post so forgive me if this has already been addressed. I've got a 96-02 tacoma axle with elocker under my 88 4Runner. I've put in 4.88's and its works just fine. When i was installing the new axle I discovered I have a tacoma axle on the right and a 4runner axle on the left. I discovered this when I went to install the ebrake. It was a Craigslist deal and I overlooked it. Stupid I know. I went to the yota yard and got a non abs tacoma axle but it vibrated when I put it in so I removed it. My question is as follows. What axles fit in the taco housing setup for the elocker and abs? 4Runner axles seem to. How about tundras or sequoias? Would anyone recommend a spacer to fill the void with the non abs axle? Thanks.

Sorry for the edit

Are you sure yours is a non ABS axle?

It's an abs axle. It has the hookups. I don't need the abs just matching shafts so the ebrake will work. It drives, sounds, and feels fine with the runner on one side and the tacoma on the other. Just trying to find a cheap solution. 4runner axles are more readily available.......just not sure if I'm overlooking something.
