76 series land cruiser locker

Hi guys, I was wondering what options are available for the following land cruiser in terms of auto lockers, like lockrite or detroit locker, I am in the U.S. but do not know much about 70 series cruisers.
Most sites I visited only specify the fj40-60-80 applications.
how do you relate 70 series to those? are the axles the same as 76 series?

Cruiser on hand:
model:KG-HZJ76K-RKMES
Engine :1HZ
Frame:HZJ76-0003298
trans/axle R151F K284

from looking at the following site it has a 9.5", 4:30 4 pinion differential.

Toyota Differential Identification - Toyota at Off-Road.com

also are the lockers the sam for front and rear axle?

Thanks in advance for any help.

The7* series have had a few changes to diffs since 1984.

Most any Land Cruiser locker will fit, but you will have to provide some details. In any case, don't worry - you have lots of choices.

Interesting see that you have the R151 instead of the usually ( as far for us ) H150 that come with the 1HZ engine ..

Post a pic but I thought you have the front reverse cut 8" HP 3rd member and the rear 9.5" so lock right, EX locker, Detroit, No Slip, ARB for rear ..

For front I only recomend a selectable locker .. that in your case ould be ARB of the factory $$$$ one .. ( electric or cable with proper long splined axles to suit it )

Oz had the R151 from 98 on behind the 1HZ. Lots of problems

I think the R151 main shaft is in 3 pieces that want to separate and the bearings dont last long.
A gearbox shop told me they just wear out everywhere,shift forks also
It was originally a Supra gearbox.
Most of my friends wih 105s or 79s rebuilt the gearbox before 150000klms.
If it is a one owner and driven very gently to church each week,then it maybe ok
The H55f,H150 and H151 are ok

They also had the 8" front diff which was based on a Hilux design and that was another problem.
