It applies to 1979 to 1985 Toyota 4X4 Pickups and 1984 and 1985 Toyota 4Runners. These instructions can also loosely apply to the Toyota Land Cruiser and Suzuki Samurai.

Yeah I fitted a diff lock to the rear of my 40 series and never used a gasket. I recommend this approach as it eliminates leaks because the nuts stay tight. It also makes disassembly easier as cleaning the gasket off is a waste of time.
I would never do this to a customers car however. The reason is I can't be bothered arguing with them.
Read into that what you will. I'm a professional.
