I know that the diff is offset to the passenger side. Will a offset diff work with a centered transfer case output? There may be clearance issues with the gas tank, but that can be moved. I found a set of FJ80 axles with elockers for $900. Is this a good price? What do you think? 88 Xtra Cab, SAS, 35X12.50 MTR, Toyota E-Lockers front and rear, Rear seat, custom nerfs and rear bumper. Re: FJ80 Rear in Mini #31571 04/16/02 10:48 PM Anonymous Unregistered If you're willing to move the tank, go for it! Plan on running a CV rear driveshaft, that should take care of the compound angle. Wider, stronger axles, dual E-lockers, cool stuff. $900 sounds like a deal to me if both ends have lockers.

With a CV shaft, the pinion has to be pointed at the t-case, which isn't going to happen w/ an offset diff. With a non-CV shaft, the flanges just need to be parallel, which can happen w/ an offset diff... ... however this is just "in theory." <img border="0" alt="[Nerd]" title="" src="graemlins/nerd.gif" /> '97 4Runner, '06 F350, '86 4Runner, '05 WR450 http://home.4x4wire.com/erik Moderated by  4Crawler, 4x4Wire, kewlynx  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts
