ARB 50mm x 80mm Differential Carrier Conversion Bearing
For 1979–1995 Toyota Pickup & 1984–1995 Toyota 4Runner 4-Cylinder Toyota 8" Differentials Converting to a 50mm Carrier
Overview
The ARB 50mm x 80mm Differential Carrier Conversion Bearing is a tapered roller bearing used when installing a 50mm-journal differential carrier or ARB Air Locker into a Toyota 8-inch 4-cylinder third member originally equipped with 45mm-ID carrier bearings.
The bearing features a 50mm inside diameter, 80mm outside diameter, and 20mm overall width. This allows the larger 50mm carrier journal to fit the 80mm carrier-bearing bore used by the applicable 4-cylinder Toyota 8-inch third member without converting to a V6-style third member.
This bearing is intended specifically for differential conversions. It is not a replacement bearing for the original 45mm-journal carrier.
Key Features
- Differential carrier conversion bearing
- 50mm inside diameter
- 80mm outside diameter
- 20mm overall width
- Tapered roller bearing design
- Allows a 50mm-journal carrier to fit an applicable 4-cylinder Toyota 8" third member
- Designed for housings originally using 45mm-ID carrier bearings
- Suitable for Toyota 8" ARB Air Locker conversions
- Supports radial and axial differential loads
- Available individually or as a pair
45mm to 50mm Carrier Conversion
Factory 4-cylinder Toyota 8-inch third members commonly use differential carriers with 45mm bearing journals. A later 50mm-journal differential carrier or applicable ARB Air Locker cannot use those original 45mm-ID bearings.
This conversion bearing solves that dimensional difference by combining a 50mm bearing ID with an 80mm bearing OD. The 50mm ID fits the larger carrier journal while the 80mm OD fits the applicable 4-cylinder third-member bearing bore.
This is different from the 50mm x 83mm carrier bearing used in Toyota V6/Turbo-style 8-inch third members. If the installed third member has an 83mm carrier-bearing bore, the standard V6/Turbo-style bearing is required instead.

Fitment Notes
- Conversion bearing for a 50mm-journal carrier
- Requires an applicable Toyota 8" third member with an 80mm carrier-bearing bore
- Intended for Toyota 8" 4-cylinder third members originally using 45mm-ID carrier bearings
- Does not fit the original 45mm-journal differential carrier
- Does not fit the 83mm bearing bore used by V6/Turbo-style Toyota 8" third members
- Does not fit Toyota 7.5" IFS differentials
- Does not fit Toyota 8" V6/Turbo applications requiring a 50mm x 83mm carrier bearing
- Verify the installed third member rather than relying only on vehicle year or engine
- Two bearings are required for a complete differential carrier installation
- Differential preload, backlash, and gear contact pattern must be correctly set during installation
- Professional differential setup is recommended
