finally worked on it a little,got the rear axle under it.axle is about 5in back.brakets are all just tacked till i get new bushings and make sure everything fits good

So is there a reason you went 5 inches back? 3 inches back seems to center the axle in the wheel well.

[toyoder]

i would guess hes going to strech the wheel base some :headbanger:

did you find a transmission/transfer adapter yet? I found one on ih8mudd for $100 if you are interested

Nice find. I would rather have the selectable locker in the rear to drive on the road and if I'm trying to save money put the full time one like an Aussi in the front.

[Storm]

really? dang, I'd rather have the selectable for steering up front so I wouldn't have to make those 5 point turns all the time. Except the one time I snapped a pinion trying to beat the traffic onto Antelope Blvd I don't notice the locker in the back on the road (lesson learned, Landcruiser locked up with 37x14.5's is not a hot rod).

i think i would rather have a selecatable up front also but if i only have one it is going in the back and front will be open for now

I have 3 cruiser's, 2 with selectable lockers and 1 with Aussie's. I would rather drive the selectables on the hard dry pavement. With twin transfer case shifters you can always pull a lever inside the cab and disengage the front drive.

[rwilley]

Looks good rsc.

Whats the tube coming out of the top of the diff. for?

[mwilley]

I tried to look through my pictures for the air locker install, but I it appears to me that air line is coming out of a different spot on the diff...

Aw yes you are right. There has to be an air line with and ARB.

yes is for the air locker.just fuel line over the standard blue air line.kinda a nice idea to put it on the 3rd instead of the houseing .the other is a breather

I thought it looked like your airline was in a different spot on the diff, but I guess it is not...I just thought it looked kind of funny. Take a look at this pick, this guy has a valve on his differential...
