It would have to 4.3 i think dave as ive now pulled 2 of em outta the rears of 1st and 2nd gen 2x4 lux's so they would probly be in the hiaces as well . $500 buck for the centres from the wreckers :shock:

they're all pretty cheap. at Pick'n'Payless they typically want $100 for a hilux/hiace diff, and sometimes can be haggled down from there if you tell them you're going to pull it apart, therefore no warranty. They are as common as dirt - pick a ratio and find it. anything over $150ish each on the shelf is too much.

You're doing well to get them for that. As a rule I don't pay more than $150. Usually down to around $100 if you're buying a few. Some wreckers want $450 for them up here though. I can't see anyone buying them for that though. :roll:

I've found 4.56's pretty easy to come by, usually around the 150, have got a few for $50 bought whole bundera diff for $250 with 4.56 high pinion, which also leaves me with two spare cv's, axles :armsup:
