I get a billion search results but I think the answer is yes. I keep chewing thru rear pinion seals on the 93 V6 Runner, I'm not sure front bearing feels right when I snug up pinion nut but I've never done diff work. since it might be time for a new one I'd like an e-locker if it can be done.
Down time is crucial so the more plug-n-play the better. Thanks

You can do it but you need to do something with the harness and get a new gasket and studs, and such, search the tech section for e-locker retrofit.
Inchworm makes a nice harness, ORS made one as well.
You will need to relocate 2 studs, so drilling/tapping and welding will need to be done. otherwise it bolts right in.

The info you need is in our Toyota tech section on the main page http://www.4x4wire.com/index.php?op...p;catid=68:toyota-tech&Itemid=53 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> If you get all your parts together, you can get it done in a days time. You can do it with the axle in the truck. Just clean it out really well.

Yep. I put mine in my '89 Runner without taking the axle out, or any welding (have to be very careful when drilling and tapping.) Mine took a weekend, but I took my time and went slow (also known as 'really afraid I was going to screw it up'.) I cleaned the axle housing really well and still changed the fluid at 50 miles and 500 miles, just in case. You can also build your own controller and pre-wire it before taking the truck out of service, like I did.

Thanks Adam (and others). I stopped at Trails West and may end up going with the Tru-Trac since I have to pull it and replace gears anyway. I'll be in Cinci this weekend (sadly for a funeral), I'll throw another saeal in the diff and hope she makes it down and back
