Help me confirm 100 rear axle fitment

[slowpok3]

Hey everyone

The left side panhard mount completely broke off my 2002 LX470 axle housing so the truck is sidelined.

I'm looking for a replacement axle, and appreciate some guidance. I've got a line on a complete and mostly rust-free axle from a 99 LX.

Appreciate confirmation of the following:

1. All 100 series axle housings will fit without modification
2. A factory locked rear would fit, but I couldn't take advantage with adding the wiring.
3. If I find a complete 03-07, I would have to swap the diff gears since 98-02 ratio is 4.3 vs. 4.1

Any other considerations I'm missing?

Thanks

Gratuitous rust photo attached from 2 years ago. I knew this was coming.

Why not fabricate a new mount and weld it back together?

With that kind of rust I’d reconsider investing a lot more.

00-02 should be plug and play.

Wonder if there is anything left to weld to.

Unfortunately there's not much to weld to. Northern VA roadsalt kicked this truck in the shins before I bought it.
