Correction: the 7.5" Tbird diff conversion uses stock XR axles. And
and carrier can come from any 7.5" tracloc vehicle, Aerostars,
Rangers, Bronco II's.

Skye- the TracLoc is a clutch plate design, just a smaller version of the
8.8". I've got a Toletta diff I'm going to try first. But see if you can
find rebuild kits for the Toyota. I haven't. Probably need to look harder.
The clutches are smaller in the Toyato. I've been taking the rust off the
car and I've got the paint for it. I got another roof(black too!) I'm
going to use part of. I bought a welder and have been practicing with it.
Just welded up the wifes Porsche this weekend.

"The 85-93 Supra 8" diff is the same as the 8" "V6" RWD Toyota truck stuff.
The case is different, but the ring & pinions the LSD clutch disks and
stuff are all the same."  Kartwheel



 The easiest bolt-in is the elusive 7.5 LSD that is identical to the XR4Ti
 open diff except for the LSD. These only came in the European Granada
 Scorpio Cosworth, AFAIK. I brought one back with me from England on a trip
 two years ago and have been enjoying it since.
