3rd member Swap from a '94 to a 3rd gen?

Hey guys sorry if this exact question has been answered before, want to confirm what I have been researching.

I found a 8" rear 3rd member on craigslist locally (rare over here) from a 94 4runner. From what I have researched so far I believe the 94 had the same/similar differentials as the 3rd gen and would maybe be compatible...? I would just like some input/advice/knowledge from anyone who can confirm that the 94 3rd member would fit in my 99.

Thanks!

It will fit, but.... if it is came from an ABS 4Runner, you will need to put an ABS sensor in there or make a plate to stop oil from coming out. The 2nd gen 4Runners had a single ABS sensor in the 3rd member.
