    does anyone know if you can get the factory rear lock diff installed on the sport package taco? i purchased an 09 TRD sport due to 6 speed and price but i didn't get the locker package and i want to upgrade without too much trouble.

    You can't have the stock LSD and locker at the same time tho... if that's what you mean.

    09 has an auto lsd that uses brakes, not a mechanical lsd like in the 05-08. the 09 OR's have the auto lsd and the locker
