What's the deal with Tundra 3rd members?
« on: Apr 13, 2006, 12:34:52 AM »
I just recently came across a Tundra 3rd member at work and I figured I could use it.  The gears and diff are trashed, but I figured I could use the housing to install a 5:29's and a locker in the rear of my '85.  So my question is this:  Do I buy bearings, gears, and a locker for a v6 to fit in this housing or what?  :headscratch:  I was told by a parts guy at my dealership that this is the same as a Tundra v6 housing but with a higher gear ratio - but he has been wrong before.  Any help is appreciated   :beerchug:

if you are talking about the third that has the straps on the brg caps then it wont fit in a standard 8" mini housing.

Yes, that's the diff I am talking about.  Damn.  Oh well, I guess I should just look for a couple of v6 3rds then.  Thanks for that link 89 toy  :thumbs:
