Interesting, thanks! Since custom axles are being made anyways, no reason the diff can't reside in the same spot as the original... I've been reading up and, like this thread says, 7.5s can be a weak point. Interesting site, looks like the LN60 and LN61 are the Aussie versions of the firstgen...

Worst case, I may be able to just replace the diff housing... Not as easily as on a unit where the tubes press in, but doable. I'll see if I break anything...

LOL. That would make it more work... Guess I missed that. :D

Thank you, I'd seen that one. It does not provide any meaningful details about interchanging an 8" housing with a 7.5" housing in the front. It does talk about interchanging ADD 7.5s with non-ADD 7.5s

87 4runner turbo. I'm keeping the IFS, and am wondering if anyone can point me at any links or threads which talk about converting the 7.5 IFS to 8" IFS. I'm assuming it's not simple or I would have found some links already. Or...

For my 1987 SR5 4Runner. I'd prefer black, but since there's no switch there at the moment, I'll take whatever color you may have. :D
