4x4 vs 2x4 Axle housing tube diameter?

I am trying to get some info on the diameter of the axle housing tubes for toyota PUs.

'79-'85 4x4 = 2 5/8"
'79-'85? 2x4 =

'86-? 4x4 = 3"
"86-? 2x4 =

Any help is greatly appreciated.
If I need to, I'm going to just find some 2x4 Toys and hop under them.

Thanks

Might be some tech info about this on Pirate in the Toyota FAQ.

Nope.
There is everything else, but no info on housing tube diameters.
I searched, searched some more and found nothing on it. I even asked over there and no response.

I thought they used the same unit in both?

Can anyone verify this?

I measured both '85 and '89 4x4 axles tonight.
Measurements updated above.

the FSM on the 3rd gen pickup doesn't show a difference between the two. It shows front end for 2wd and 4wd. Then just shows rear, no 2wd or 4wd. Just a couple of notes about different pieces like the rear brake cable.
