I have it on my Tacoma - the Taco 4x4 off road has a “e-locker” (electronic locker) on it so you can push a button and lock them together.
It only works in 4 low, but man it works good.

on the negative side it makes the rear end (Differenctial) weaker, and mine went bad and I had to replace it.
There are also mechanical lockers, and e-lockers...

Thanks!

Several TRD Off-Road (SR5 Grade) packages and a couple of TRD Sport packages.

Nowhere does it explain what the major difference is between the Off-Road and the Sport packages. They both seem to have the same upgraded shocks. Google search doesn't get me anywhere.

Anybody know for sure? When I go to the dealer, I want to already know the answer.


Tundra still is missing a rear locker in any package.

Shocking weak link that should be a discount but then again new trucks are not exactly easy to find.

Good Luck.


John burns: I’m looking at trucks too, no past experience, what is a rear locker?
