2005-2016 Tacoma Axle Codes

Sounds about right.

 

Another data point. I have a 2012 DCLB TRD Sport with a code A04C. I do not have an e-locker. I stumbled on this thread while searching for the answer of what I got.

 

Wonder why the Code has the "C" as they switched to electronic simulated limited slip around 2008 or 2009 if memory serves me.

 

Mine too.

 

E-LSD switch was done for 2009+ models. I have A04C on my 06' Sport (Mechanical LSD)

 

Right, I always liked the mechanical version better.

 

Mines A04C as well... But mine is a 2015 TRD OR, so the "C" isn't correct for me either.

 

First of all thanks for this thread! Here is my Door Jam Sticker and I have an E-Locker, no Diff LSD. I too am curious if the "C" code also includes the electric-LSD controlled. I unfortunately have a pinion bearing failing so I needed to understand which diff I have.

 

Well my '17 SR5 4x4 6AT has A04A on the sticker so I'm guessing 8" 3.91 gears.

 

I would think so also, however, when looking at the brochure for the 2017 SR5 it shows only two gear ratios, the 4.30 for the 4-cyl. and 3.91 for the V6. So perhaps the '17's are just a slight bit different than the others. No matter, the stock gears are coming out and 4.30 gears are coming to compensate for the new 265/75/16 tires and the 8" size allows me to use a Yukon Grizzly locker in the rear (a close relation to the great Detroit Soft Locker) and an ARB in the front.

 

What if I got a rear out of an 2010 OR and don't have the door sticker?

 

Your Sport would have obviously be different from a 10 OR, it will be an E Locker with 3.73 from the Factory

 

I got the axle from a 2010 OR, and I want to know the gear ratio but don't have the truck to look at a sticker, and I don't wanna open it up just yet, I only have the diff sticker

 

As far as I am aware the 2nd Gen OR only came with 3.73 from the Factory. Someone could have installed something aftermarket along the way though.

 

There's gotta be a way to read that diff sticker

 

If it's from a 2010 OR that hasn't been altered, then it's a 3.73 E Locker

 

Nice, thx for the info
My O6 is A04C, whatever that is

 

Your 06 has mechanical limited slip instead of computer simulated limited slip.

 

What would the ratio be?

 

3.73 was across the board except for 4 Cylinder
