Front FJ80 Electric Locker 
Installation With 5.29 gears 
In A Minitruck Axle

The process is fairly simple. Replace the stock 8" low pinion 3rd member with a high pinion 8" electric locking 3rd member from a 1994-1997 FJ80 Landcruiser. The diff only comes in 4.11, but aftermarket 4.88 and 5.29 gears can be installed.

J.R. from Ms. Conception Motorsports in Utah set up my 5.29 gears. I highly recommend his shop for this.

The housing modifications are exactly the same as doing a low pinion electric locker conversion. 


Countersunk cover bolts to clear spring
