So I recently picked up a v6 3rd member for my 85 pickup. It has 5.29 gears and a brand new arb locker it is not high pinion. So my question is Trail gear has a high pinion conversion kit., now what would that kit need from the 3rd member I have??? And would I be able to use the remaining 3rd member case and gears in the rear with the parts left over...???

Your Going to need a completely different gear set. The High Pinion is a reverse cut so you will need a High Pinion gear set. Set up kit would be the same. ARB would be the same as well. You would be able to put a V6 housing in the back of your truck no problem.

Be careful with the HP kit. I bought one and could not get a good pattern on set up. Turned out the housing was defective. The one I got in the kit was cheesy looking.

The replacement they sent me under warranty was of better quality. It was heavier and had better hardware. I don't know if the kits have a cheaper unit or if I just got a bad one. The rest of the kit had quality parts.

I never set up the replacement so I can't comment on it. I got a used OEM housing while waiting for the warranty and sold the TG one.

thanks for the insight I really appreciate it... seems like the local junk yard is getting quite a few 4runners in it lately so I'm gonna try and grab a OEM housing just in case... as long as I can get to it before anyone else... seems like that's the first thing people grab off the 4runners...

No 4runners never came with HP thirds. Your going to want to look at the front diff of a 91-97 toyota landcruiser. Or buy a brand new housing from yukon gear.
