    Hello Gents and Ladies,

    I'm new and just bought my first Tacoma, 2nd toyota of my own, countless to the family's :) Bought a catalina 22 boat about 5 months ago, drove a BMW and said I will get a truck to pull it. After I was ready to purchase there was a decision to be made between my tacoma and a 4 runner. The decision was easy but the price was very different :eek: I somehow managed to get the truck for close to what I thought was impossible!

    Just finished the temp/compass fix and it worked! Thanks for that Tacoma world!

    Now a question :) Where can I find cheaper/better mud flaps? I've got an Aries Bullbar and Nerf Bar setup coming over the next 2 months from my lovely girlfriend so mud flaps are on my list!

    Updated with Pics!

    Hmm well I definitely have a question now haha.

    I'm trying to figure out if my truck has an LSD? I appear to have the sport package(2x4) and towing package. I have Yellow and Blue (Billstien shocks in back), sport hood, trans cooler in front of my radiator, towing hitch and plug, color matched bumpers etc.

    I read that if you look under your truck at the rear diff it would say "LSD" on a sticker, I appear to have 2 stickers but are black and can't see anything written on them even after cleaned. I've used search and I can't seem to find a clear answer.

    Thanks for any help!
