Identifying the Rear Diff 8" or 7.5" - in prep for Locker addon

• Differential ID via VIN & C/TR/A/TM Information Plate ("off-road")
• More Detail w/photo's ("4x4wire")

So according to "off-road" because the Identification Plate shows a "G" this should be an 8" rear Diff.

And according to "4x4wire" based on the images they provided for rear-diff's this looks like an 8" rear Diff.

Marlin Crawler is world renouned for building the best Toyota Transmissions, and off-road truck setups.  This is the rear-locking Differential I'm considering: Here

The idea is that most vehicles that are 'on-road'/'street' vehicles don't use a 'Locker' rear end, instead they use something called a 'limited-slip'.  This is commonly seen when one wheel spins faster, or only one wheels spins when doing a burn out.  But the main reason limited-slip was created was to make going around corners smoother.  Since the 'inside wheel' on a turning vehicle spins less.  If you are forcing them both to spin the same you and up with wheel-hop, or tires chirping (sometimes).

In a performance vehicle you want as much traction as you can get.  In other words you want both rear wheels spinning.  Two wheels spinning with 'hookup' or get traction faster than one!
