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.


Vehicle Fitment

Toyota Pickup

  • 1979–1983 Toyota Pickup – 1st Gen – 20R / 22R as equipped – 4-Cylinder Toyota 8" Differential – Converting from 45mm to 50mm Carrier
  • 1984–1988 Toyota Pickup – 2nd Gen – 22R / 22RE – Non-Turbo – 4-Cylinder Toyota 8" Differential – Converting from 45mm to 50mm Carrier
  • 1989–1995 Toyota Pickup – 3rd Gen – 22RE – 4-Cylinder Toyota 8" Differential – Converting from 45mm to 50mm Carrier

Toyota 4Runner

  • 1984–1989 Toyota 4Runner – 1st Gen – 22R / 22RE – Non-Turbo – 4-Cylinder Toyota 8" Differential – Converting from 45mm to 50mm Carrier
  • 1990–1995 Toyota 4Runner – 2nd Gen – 22RE – 4-Cylinder Toyota 8" Differential – Converting from 45mm to 50mm Carrier

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
