I have an 02 tundra with 4 x 4 hi lo range and true limited slip rear end. I wanted to be able to install a lockable front diff. Has anyone ever done this? Where would you get the parts

A new ram 1500 had an easier time but he had new blizzaks. I'm going to try new tires. We have lots of ice here too so I don't want to give up on my winter tires unless I'm confident the mt's will be good with ice. Maybe mt's with studs. I'll have to do some research. Thanks for your posts they...

Firestone winterforce. They probably have about 60% tread left. Well above wear bars When I'm going up the bigger hills everything is spinning and sliding. Thought atrac might kick in and help at that point. I am probably losing some contact with the ground on a tire or two when i get speed up...

Got decent winters lots of tread left. Perhaps I should upgrade though. New tires would be a lot cheaper than a new truck:yo:. Not as much fun though.:crybaby: Would the gx center lock system perform similar to my tundras 4x4 I have read up on the Toyota four wheel drive systems but is...

I currently have an 02 tundra 4 x 4 hi lo range and limited slip. The traction is not sufficient on the snow covered dirt roads

The gx has a locking center diff. I thought that was different than an open centre diff. I will be using mostly on pavement but we have heavy snow cover for five months a year. When I go off road it won't be moguls or ruts but heavy snow over graded dirt road. I also have to tow a 4000lb boat

The gx has a center locking diff and the four runner a rear locking diff. Which would be better and why

Hi The base 2014 gx 460 has a full time 4x4 with limited slip and a centre locker. The 2014 trail edition four runner has 2 wheel or 4 wheel drive mode. The four wheel would have limited slip and a rear locker. If I understand the difference when in 4 x4 with your locker engaged the four...
