Not sure on a reliable net source but here is what I have forund anyway if its any help. Your 02 2.7 will be a 7.5mm, 4.3 ratio, open diff. All the 2.7s are the same and that is what mine had.

Try this test

Sit with the clutch out and car in neutral, if the noise goes away when you press the clutch in you have a worn thrust bearing

97-01 2.7 petrol has 4.3

97-01 2.7 petrol has 4.3

Well mate I have a single cab hilux, 2000 model and I pay about $1000

Mate u may get a way with only a few small mods if its 50mill or less, common things that need changing are moving radiator components and extending brake lines

Yeah Dumdnace I suppose that stepping up rocks would be invaluable in rough terrain, my soltuion would be to marry a dentist or solicitor and get her to pay for decking out your rig !!

There should be two notiable drain and fill heagonal nuts on the gerabox that are bigger in size than most bolts around that area
The drain is on the obttom centre of my hilux and the fill is on the side, both are about half way up on mine...

Mate for 20k you can get a bad ass 4x4 for sure

You could pick up a slick hilux dual cab diesel for that price id imagine

Or a crusier or patrol too !!

Wind em down ?

It may sound stupid but make sure you put it in 4x4 mode and take it for a spin, I had a mate do this with an 80 and when he put it in 4x4 it sounded like someone smashed a couple of metal pipes together in the diff !!

Rough Price ??

I had a mate with an immobiliser and clublock and it still got ripped off..
