thanks!
bestgen4runner - could you be more specific? What do you mean by "newer" ones? Specific years? And are they a direct bolt-in without having to change anything else?
Also, what years/applications would have a high pinion?
For the moment I need to find a 3rd I can swap in with no hassles as I broke my ring gear and need the truck back on the road ASAP.
Also - the front and rear solid axles are the same, aren't they? In other words, I could put a rear third from a later model truck into the front solid axle of my '84... right?
