I'm swapping an sr in my ae and I'm worry about the axles, so i want to do a swap with a biger one,

I'm trying to find a mk1 celica or supra solid axles to fit on my corolla but it seems to be hard to find in my area, so what other diff i can fit ??
i what something where i can find parts everywhere

i found a couple of cressida diff but its all drum brake, is it possible to convert to disc??

hilux

easy to convert to disc if you wish too (big big thread on toymods.net)

easy to change stud pattern from 6/5 stud to sprinter 4-stud

heaps of widths available

and you won't break it in a hurry ;)

it's also cheap as chips

and LSD available at ease



keep in mind none of the 'upgrade' diffs will be a bolt-in affair, you will need to get the sprinter mounts welded on and such. any competent diff shop will do this for $500

tacoma and sr5 will be fine, they both run G series rear diffs, pick a year/model that is close to the track of your vehicle

track is the distance between the wheels on a single axle, measure from center of the tyre to the center of the tyre
