Hello, I'm new on the forum.
I live in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles, in the caribbean just a few miles off the coast of Venezuela, Aruba, etc etc.
I've noticed that allot of the guys here on the forum like to use Hilux diffs.
I would like to receive more info about these ,like model,year,engine, etc etc.
On the Island we also have allot of hilux pick-ups and Hiace vans but none (to my knowledge) are LSD!
Thank's for your time.

Ryso, depends what car you want to put the diff into. The RN27 Hilux (late 70's or early 80's) has a 1370 mm hubface to hubface width. Most others are 1410 mm across. Hiaces are generally 1570 mm across.
Check the build plate as this will have a diff code - it will be G followed by 3 numbers. If the third number is a 3 or a 5, then the diff centre is an LSD. The first 2 numbers will indicate the diff ratio. It can be deciphered here.
If LSDs are tricky to find on the island, with the 4WD capital of the world only a few hundred kilometres to your north, surely LSD centres would be easy enough to get from there?
