I guess, but what's the benefit?
Just different! Quicker access to let out the pieces...
I only got some housings last weekend so it'll be just awhile before I can start...

The FZJ80 was the only Toyota to use a steering setup like a rover with the tierod behind the axle and under the pinion. And the FZJ80 front diff is the only high pinion toyota diff. A normal low pinion rear diff would hit the tie rod.

What if you take a front Lp V6 third and flip it and run reverse cut gears in the front?

If it was possible you would have heard about it by now.

I don't know about toy diffs, but dana high pinion and low pinion have different oil passage castings around the pinion to keep it lubed. You would almost certainly starve the pinion bearing in a full time 4wd vehicle doing this.
