they are ifs and use special gears. plus the aluminum housing and stretch and loose the preload on the carrier bearing if jacked up by a floor jack or landed on a good size rock on the center of the diff housing.

if I were making a bagged and dropped mini truck it would be pretty cool addition... offroad truck, not so much.

LoL i honestly didnt realize it was a third member!!! it sure does look cool though, I bet a lot of rat rod guys use em, solely base on looks

a third member is whats found on a ford 9", or toyota axles, thats not a third member. thats an irs diff...

heres an independant front axle (ifs) buggy, notice the center section doesnt move with the suspension travel at all?

this, is a fabricated third member style solid rear axle (banjo). the third member is not shown:

as far as the mini truckers go, availaibility is king, not many scraped vipers around at the junkyards...
which is why a lot of them use jaguar IRS setup's. ive seen em myself at the junkyards...
they have inboarded brakes, which is kinda cool, lowers unsprung weight.
