    My 2010 PreRunner is suppose to have Automatic limited slip differential. With Trac & VSC off this thing would get stuck in a light mist. Anybody had any experience with this?

    Well if you are a prerunner then I assume you have a locking rear diff? But if you would get stuck if you turn them off, then leave them on.

    The Automatic Limited Slip is probably not what you're thinking it is....

    The AUTO Limited slip is BRAKE actuated. It's NOT a limited slip that's inside the differential like the earlier tacomas have (I have the mechanical LSD in my 07).

    A lot of folks get that confused, and why I mentioned it.

    Start by reading this thread.

    It might explain a lot for ya.

    He won't have a locker if he doesn't have the TRD Offroad.
