Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: How do I know if my Tacoma has the T8.75 E-Locker differential?
  A: Third-generation Tacomas with the TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro trims equipped with a rear electronic locker use the T8.75 differential. Open-differential models use the smaller 8-inch unit. Confirm your axle by checking the axle tag or decoding the factory option codes on your window sticker.
• Q: Does YDAT8.75-390E include the E-Locker motor or wiring?
  A: No. The YDAT8.75-390E is the third member assembly including the ring gear, pinion, and E-Locker carrier. The factory E-Locker motor and wiring harness connect to the carrier after installation and are reused from your original unit.
• Q: Is 3.90 a good ratio for my tire size?
  A: A 3.90 ratio is a popular upgrade for Tacomas running 33-35 inch tires over the factory 3.73 or 3.91 ratios. It restores low-end torque and cruise RPM to near-factory levels after a tire size increase.
• Q: Is this a direct bolt-in replacement?
  A: Yes. The T8.75 is a dropout-style third member. Remove the axles and drain the fluid, unbolt and remove the existing third member from the rear housing, and install the YDAT8.75-390E in its place. No housing removal is required.
• Q: Does professional installation require special tools?A: The dropout design simplifies installation compared to traditional cover-style differentials. However, correct torque values and fluid fill are required. Professional installation by a drivetrain shop is recommended.
• Q: What gear oil does the Toyota T8.75 use?
  A: Toyota specifies 75W-90 GL-5 gear oil for the T8.75. Use a quality synthetic 75W-90 and fill to the bottom edge of the fill plug hole. If your unit has a limited-slip carrier, add the correct friction modifier — the E-Locker carrier does not require a friction modifier.
• Q: Will my factory E-Locker button still work after installation?
  A: Yes, provided the factory E-Locker motor and wiring are transferred from the original unit to the YDAT8.75-390E carrier. The electronic engagement mechanism is maintained by the E-Locker carrier design.
• Q: What is the warranty on the YDAT8.75-390E?
  A: Yukon Gear covers this assembly with a Lifetime Limited Warranty. Drivetrain components also qualify under Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act consumer protections.

Installation Notes

• Drain the rear differential before removing the third member
• Remove both rear axle shafts to allow third member removal from the housing
• Unbolt the existing third member and carefully withdraw it from the housing
• Transfer the factory E-Locker motor from the original carrier to the YDAT8.75-390E carrier before installation
• Install the YDAT8.75-390E and torque all fasteners to factory specification
• Reinstall axle shafts, fill with 75W-90 GL-5 gear oil, and test E-Locker function before returning to road use
