Should bolt up sweet. Is your diff code on your firewall something like A01B??

I haven't done it, but all indications are that it should fit up just fine.

I was going to put an altezza torsen into my old JZX91, then discovered it had the bigger 8" version. Yours being the smaller 7.5" should take the Altezza one without a problem.

A=7.5 04=4.3(I think) A=open

If its auto its probably 4.3.

Diff codes don't mean shit in later model Toyotas when it comes to the size of your head/cp.
