Rear axle swap from open diff to oem locked???? What do I need to pull???

[xtreemathlete]

Hello, I have started to replace my 2002 rear open diff axle with an oem locked rear from a 1999 in my 100 series. Besides the switch, and axle itself what will I need to remove from the donor vehicle? Thanks

Here's a video I made on the subject.

Short answer: if you swap axles you will need to add some brackets for the fourth brake line (ATRAC models have independent brakes at all four corners). You'll also need the switch, and a wiring harness. The 2002 is not wired for it so you'll more than likely have to make a custom harness up to the switch.
