Hoping for a bit of input regarding rear diffs for my Hilux.
I have a Lexus V8 in my 1985 model (ex-diesel) tray back and the extra power killed my rear diff last weekend (stripped the pinion gear...), so I'm interested in a fix.
I am considering just putting in a ARB locker with a hardened crown and pinion gear set, but my concern is that if will just break again (Pinion and or axles).
I was considering grabbing a 75 series Cruiser Diff and changing the spring perches over for HiLux ones... question is:
1. has anyone done one before?
2. Are Cruiser diffs much wider than HiLux diffs (LN65), ie will I have to shorten it?
3. Can I get a set of diff ratio's to suit my current (standard) front diff?
4. If someone has done one, anything I should be looking out for in terms of complications and 75 series diff choices?
Thanks in advance for any input.
