toyota rear end ?\'s
Hey guys, I don't know much about toyotas, and I want to swap an 8" into my brothers 85 2wd. I believe 85 and up 2wd v6's had the 8" rear w/ the 5 lug pattern, and the spring plates on the axle in the same place as the 4 cyl. 2wd. Am I correct? Also, is there any distinguishing marks to tell the 8" housing apart form the 7"? I don't want to trust a junk yard giving me and already pulled one and saying "yeah it's out of a v6". Any help, or hints would be appreciated. Steve
