    Hi all new taco owner here in Hickory NC.
    1st don't tell me I should'a gotten a 4x4, I got what I could afford and I commute 30 min to work every day, so the 24-25 mpg is amazing.
    That being said I'm the kind of guy who likes to "see what she can do" so I was wondering if y'all know of any places go off-roading that wouldn't be dangerous or embarrassing in my 4x2 prerunner.

    The former sedan owner/new truck owner in me says "do what?" I have a 2013 Prerunner v4 if that helps

    - ok so after some searching around, no I do not, Is this something i could add later on, or is it so integral I'd have to replace the whole front end?

    Do you have an kind of stickers on the bed of your truck that say TRD? Do you have a switch on your dash that says "locker" on it anywhere?

    It does have traction control though, so there may be a mod to trick it in to staying on.

    there is the yellow wire mod, but i think that may just be for 4wd. your best option may just be to use the auto lsd right now.
