Junkyards, for sale ads on message boards like this one

www.car-part.com will help you track down ones in junk yards. Beware though, most junkyards dont know the difference between an e-locker and a regular 3rd.

Getting the Wheeling Fever
The trick is to buy the whole rear axle from a junkyard for a Tacoma. The axle is a couple of inches wider (a plus), has bigger brakes (another plus) and will have the e-locker complete (assuming you specify locking diff). Get one for a prerunner (rear leaf springs instead of coils), and you won't have to weld perches.

Good idea on the axle swap. But all Tacomas have leaf springs, none of them had coils. 2wd (except prerunner) had spring under, and all 4wd have spring over.
