Stock 2006 4cyl

I have a stock 2006 2-wd 4-cyl and i want to put a 3" lift on it and was thinking about putting a locker in the rear-end. Any suggestions on engine upgrades or what kind of locker to use?

 

welcome to TW.

On the engine, 2 best mods would be a decent airfilter or CAI. I use the afe pro dry. A header is a good option too. you'll notice some modest gains.

I put a trutrac LSD in mine, not sure what you'd prefer in a locker theres a lot to read on site for ARB lockers and auto locking ones.

 

Hi and welcome to TW also. Do you have a 5 lug (base) or 6 lug (Prerunner)?

 

5 lug

 

Turbos are always fun!

 

You won't get gains from a drop in air filter. But your mind will feel gains anyway. You will get negligible gains from any intake.

 

Any 1 thing seems to make little difference, but you get 2-4 together it adds up.
Only 2 tests that matter beat a but dyno, mine lugs less on certain hills, also when I let out the clutch, it doesn't kill the engine nearly as readily.

 

Agreed things add up, but intake is last place I'd spend money.

 

have new gears, don't want more.

 

its all in your head my friend.

 

It's in the truck, gears too.
Plus, you cant really have a truck that lugs in 5th on a certain hill all the time fake a no lugging anymore...before the gears too.

Anyway its not our thread to snipe in. just welcome the new guy and such.
