What kind of diff?

[fastjim11]

What kind/brand/make is my front diff? Its a 1977.
The reason I ask is I can lay my hands on a detroit locker for real cheap that came out of a Ford 8" rear end an I wondering will it fit/work?
Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Is it a stock one for your rig? If you do not know post up a picture of the center pumpkin.

Howdy! I'd bet a week's worth of overtime that it is all stock Landcruiser. Can't swear to the year, but it looks just like my 76 did when I bought it, 20+ years ago. John

That would be enough description I think. I think they are also called the Toyota 8.8".
