I thought 75 series cruiser diffs were 9" and hiluxes are 8" :?

Good luck fitting a 9" centre to a 8" housing.

the centre on the rear diff from a 75 isn't in the same spot on the diff as a hilux.... does that make sense?

(doh, i read the question wrong.)

Do you mean 75's are offset and lux is Center in the rear diff?

I thought only 60's were 9inch???

75/80/lux all 8inch?????

I'm sure someone will correct me if wrong, but I understand on an 80 the front is 8" high pinion and the rear is 9" low pinion.
Thought the 75 series are 9" front and rear till 91 then same as 80 series.

so the front will fit, with a lot of work (drill and tap housing, some of the bolts dont line up)

or you can PM me and tell me where the cheap locker diffs are
hands and mums dont count!!!
