Axle Identification...HELP!

[garryk6]

HI Toyota experts! I need help identifying an axle I got for use in an off-road project. It is a matched gear seat to the Dana-30 I got with it. I've figured it is a Toyota, and maybe from around 1977, as it came off a "dealer option" 4x4 1977 Datsun PU. The housing looks like a standard 4x4 Toyota rear axle from the early eighties. The drums and backing plates look like they are from a 2wd, as the axles are 5 lug, and the drums are 10"x 2", and there are adapter plates on the outside of the drum for going from 5 on 4 1/2" to 5 on 5 1/2" bolt pattern to match the front Dana-30 bolt pattern.... I will now attempt to upload a few pics of the axle to help in identification. oops can't do that yet...
Thanks in advance, Garry K

All 4wd toyota truck axles are 6 by 5.5-meaning that they are 6 lug on a 5.5 inch center.
