How to identify a rear axle

Post by binge » Tue Apr 08, 2014 10:36 pm

We picked up an SJ410 through work a few weeks back.
It was full to the brim with scrap metal, but when I started pulling it all out, I came across a disc converted rear axle.
I am assuming it's probably a 410 axle, but is there any way to confirm this?
It would just save me a job of swapping all the brake conversion bits over to my rear axle, I could just swap the whole axle.
As this axle has a bash plate mount welded onto it, along with fitted braided hoses etc.


Cheers,


Ben

If the diff housing is the same size as your 410 axle you are good to go as the 413 and samurai have bigger diffs.
