I've been looking around on here a bit for a write up or even a reference to someone putting an elocker in their first gen truck. I'm going to be spending some time scouring junkyards in the North Idaho/ East Washington area picking parts this summer and this has been on my mind. I've been thinking about a v6 rear and anyway, but this would definitely be a reason to go for it. So, my question is, does anyone know of someone on here or even IH8MUD that has done it? The wiring is all that really worries me. I found a few write ups on what I would need to pull or purchase to make it happen, but it never hurts to ask.

 

8" is an 8" .. so fitment is all the same , and what I mean by that is the 3rd member fitting into the housing on an 8" rear housing (79-95)
this guy is doing one right now .. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f197...er-fab-269479/ , maybe you guys can "chat"

You will have to clearance the axle housing on the inside for the side adjust bolt heads

 

I already found a housing at the junkyard in town to trim and tap, now I need to hunt down a locker . I found a yard that will trade me parts for selling yota stuff on forums and Craigslist too, this might become a really cheap mod
