Hi there, Will the factory rear diff lock head out of a LJ78 Prado fit a KZJ95 Prado rear axle housing.

different diffs i think, rear kzj95 is usually a lsd

Depends...
If you mean will it fit to a KZJ95 which had a std diff.. then no, as the locker diffs are a different shape in the mating flange to accommodate the actuator fork. It would need to be modified...(I have done a non locker housing in a KZJ78 but I put in an e locker from another KZJ78)

If you mean between two diff lock axle assy's... I am unsure. Looking at Toyodiy.com comparing gaskets the std diffs appear the same.. but cant determine what the locked diff gasket number is... Perhaps a trip to Toyota and ask them...

That answers my question thanks, the KZJ95 is just a standard open diff so the locker wont fit, Damn.

Not to say it wont fit but you will have to do something like this.


Retro fitting e lockers into std housings is quiet common..
Just not sure if that e locker / diff combo will...

I'd say it would fit but with a little shoe horning..
