Will these fit in my 3rd gen

I'm an idiot. I meant to post the link. They are 3rd members. I know the generation difference. But I didn't think it applied to gears
 
Taken from the website I linked for you. Not trying to be mean or rude, but how is it not clear?

'86-95 IFS trucks and 4Runners, and all '93-98 T100s use a 7.5" front diff that is offset to the passenger's side. Later models came with ADD (Automatic Differential Disconnect) which uses a vacuum actuated mechanism to disconnect the drivers side axle shaft from the differential. Carriers and gear sets are interchangeable between the two different versions (and also happen to be the same as used in the 2wd Toyota pickup 7.5" diffs). One difference between ADD and non-ADD diffs is that the carrier in an ADD differential has needle bearings supporting the axle shafts at the differential. The non-ADD diffs did not have this bearing and sometimes the passenger side axle flange wears the carrier and becomes loose or wobbly, eventually causing oil leaks, noise, and possible spider gear damage. ADD and non-ADD diffs are swappable as are most of their parts. This makes it possible to change your ADD diff to non-ADD by simply swapping parts as I've done in the picture to the right.

'95-03 Tacoma, '00-04 Tundra, ?? Sequoia's, and 96-02 4Runners have a high-pinion 7.5" IFS front diff offset to the drivers side. The high-pinion design is used so that the rack and pinion steering and anti-sway bar on these vehicles can run under the front driveshaft. The housing is a unique bolt-together design. The carrier inside is exactly the same as the '86-95 IFS diffs, so LSD's and lockers for it are also the same. However, since this is a high-pinion diff, the gears for it are different (reverse-cut) than the earlier diff. There is an ADD and non-ADD version of this diff as well.
These diffs use different gear sets than the earlier IFS diff because of the high-pinion design.

on other words, if you have a 3rd gen (96-02) you need that exact front 3rd. If you have an add diff and you're buying a non-add diff it's possible to change out tubes. BUT ONLY on a gen specific diff to yours.


The rears are pretty interchangeable..

'86-95 4cyl Turbo and V6* trucks and 4runners, and ALL '96+ 4Runners use the Toyota 8" 4-pinion differential in the rear. This diff is known as the "V6/Turbo diff."

However, the rear being a factory 4.88 equipped diff I don't know if it will work or not.

Lol. I like how you say yourself you don't know if the rear will work or not after telling me that it's perfectly clear...

Thank you for showing me the info that I already read though. I appreciate your patience.
 
I have a 4.30 front ADD diff and a 4.30 rear E-Locker complete axle out of a 2000 4Runner with 60,000 miles on them. More than likely you have 4.10 in your 5 speed 3rd Gen. I know it is only marginally lower gearing but it would be a locker atleast. I see someone recommeded a Craigslist ad in Missouri. Not sure if you are from Missouri too but I am in central Iowa so not too far.

I'm actually in Dallas. And sadly, I have 3.90s in my truck. :(
 
Am I the only one who read this add? Hint - the last part??? ;):

Model year 2000 Toyota electronic locker rear end 4:10 gears. These elockers are hard to find and cost over 1000 new. This one came off of a Tacoma. Have an older staight axle Toyota? this will fit in the rear or take the elocker off and put in on your pumpkin to make it a real no slip 4x4, call 459 7three35 cash only would consider bang bang for trade.
