Is this a rare tacoma???

lol. I know it's you Kyle. That's what i'm saying!!

 

Far as I know all the dc/TRD's came with updated 16in 5 star alloys. Why would they put a steel stamped wheel on an upgraded TRD/SR5?

 

Zero4 was referring to 4-cylinder DC's in general, not TRD ones specifically.

However, you're right - the TRD Off Road Package included the 16" alloy rims and upgraded tires, regardless of engine / transmission / model series.

 

Haha. He is right! As soon as you start get into wheeling you will wish you had bought the double cab with the locker!

 

lol. But.......I have a locker.

 

I have a friend with 2003 double cab 4x2 4 cylinder TRD that does not have a factory locker.

He bought it used but, the stickers look like they came on the truck.

 

Very nice Toyota. the 2.7 is a strong motor!!!

 

Hard-to-find? Yes.


Rare? Hardly. There is no Tacoma in this world that I or even Toyota themselves would consider or call "rare".

 

ok guys hate to beat a dead horse but here you go... to VixTacom the reason you have 4cyl and locker is a little thing called yours is 4wd

4cyl prerunner (2wd) trd = no locker
4cyl 4x4 trd = locker
6cyl prerunner (2wd) trd = locker
6cyl 4x4 trd = locker

yes they made factory trd 4cyl pre runners and unless someone put the stickers AND the suspension out from a trd truck then his is a factory trd prerunner

 

Close, but ...

The real differentiator is engine / transmission combo. It was 4-cylinder automatic 6-lug Tacos that definitely could not get the e-locker (either as part of the TRD package or as a standalone option).

... So 4WD 4-cylinder automatics couldn't get lockers from the factory.

 

ok well all dc's are auto correct?? lol I forgot to point that one out but ... I keep thinking I've seen a auto extra cab trd with locker 4x4

 

Yes - all pre-2005 PreRunners and Double Cabs were automatics. Therefore, no pre-2005 4-cylinder PreRunner or Double Cab could have the factory e-locker.

An automatic **V6** 4X4 got the e-locker with the TRD Off Road Package.

 

man I keep missing key points when i type...

ok well all dc's are auto correct?? lol I forgot to point that one out but ... I keep thinking I've seen a 4cylauto extra cab trd with locker 4x4

 

I think what he's spelling out is there also is no 4x4 4 cyl. auto tranny Dbl. cab.

 

right but I do believe I have seen an extra cab 4cyl auto with locker... so you cant just say all 4cyl/autos dont have locker , at this point it doesnt matter and i may be wrong about the truck i saw.

the op has a trd that is for sure lol

 

extended cab 4 cyl. auto. might have a locker but a dbl cab 4 cyl. auto will not. Actually I thought all 4 cyl's with auto dinnitt though. And I don't think 4 cyl. auto was avail. in dbl cab with 4wd. Prolly the biggest reason you didn't see more of this config. was beacause it was so confusing to order. laughs.
