Can any one identify this rear end?

I’ve been trying to figure out which rear end this is... I would alimentally like to do a disk conversion on it but not sure where to start. The rear end was originally outfitted to a Chevy luv that I had bought. All I know so far is that it is a Toyota rear end. Only problem is from all the images and diagrams that I have seen no other Toyota axel flange looks like the one I have. The flange bolt pattern is rectangular and all the ones im seeing are either rounded or square. Can anyone help me ID this one? Also the axle uses unsealed roller bearings amd is 6 lug so most likly 4wd. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If you can measure the width of the axle housing or ,measure the length of the axle I could dig in my parts pile and let you know if it is a 79-85 or 86-95( 3" wider than the earlier axle)

A Nissan axle loo s similar if my memory stick works...

Definitely looks the one out of my old 89. I would imagine that is the rear end referred to as the " turbo v6"

Uhhh... First off your name does fit you really well cause you are "that guy" you know the nay-sayer. But if i must explain, looks like those mounting patterns to.the axle housing came off a turbo v6. If you notice, other axle mounting patterns are slightly more rounded. Maybe get your eyes checked or get a new computer with a bigger screen. Oh and i said" i would imagine" so no guarantees... Your right thank god your here. Dhalai lama of Toyota! Haha j/k

20 different axles? Come on now... Never claimed to be an expert just said " i would imagine that is the rear end referred to as the turbo v6" do you see the words " im here, i need better pics" implying im the expert i.think not... Difference between a problem and a problem solver buddy. Be a part of a solution not a contributor to the problem. Maybe you should rethink your approach and try again

Well basically you guys, what im saying is that the bolt pattern on the flange is rectangular. All the "Pictures" and other information about ways of doing a disk conversion on a toyota rear are coming up with either the square pattern or the circle pattern. Also I dont know what year or model its off of. Just know its a toyota.

I dont think theres any need for ˟˟˟˟ talking about how crapy the pictures are or how bad ass your interface is. Just looking for some advice is all.

Nothing in those pics would tell you they are from an 86 or 87 turbo rear end or 88-95 v 6 rear end.
Only way to tell is by the axle measurement...

Edit
OP 48 5/8" is a 79-85 early rear axle..

I will say its not a turbo v6 rear. E-Brake cable is different. V6 rears have a external lever. Unless it was off a 4runner but the axle would have coil spring perches and trailing arm brackets all over it.
