2LM PnP - Plug and play 2WD low range for the 3rd gen. Tacoma

Forgot all about this mod.
Remembered it when I was backing the boat up my driveway last weekend. Smoking the clutch the whole time.
Better late then never I guess. Glad I got the last one.

 

Have you decided how many you need in the group buy to launch the next batch? This is a great capability to have!

 

50

 

I'm convinced word is just getting out. Most shops seem unaware of the ease of your harness install vs. the huge benefit, for example. Folks I talk with never heard of such a thing but really quick to say "should be factory ".

Smoking my damned clutch disc backing up my driveway put the fear o God in me.

 

Absolutely. I have a gen 2 and did an FJ case to get this capability. I use it all the time! That was before these kits were out. Having the option for such a low price is a no brainer. For any wives/girlfrinds out there, this would make a great stocking stuffer!! I have a friend with a gen 3 that I have steered here,so I'm hoping the list fills quickly!

 

For this mod, this is how people should be lining up for it.

Really is a no-brainer. If any mod has a chance to be pumped out by the hundreds, or even thousands ... this is it.

 

LOL, as said, it should have come from the factory this way. Backing up the manuals is an absolute clusterfuck without 2 Lo. If I couldn't have overcome this problem when I bought my truck, I probably would have sold it within a year. At the time I was towing all the time.

 

Yep, same. I have the 4 banger and have to tow this thing all over the place. I was wrestling with upgrading to a Tundra, but I like the $100 solution much better.

 

Least fun zombie apocalypse ever.

 

Honestly they went faster than I expected. I suppose if I wanted to deal with it I could probably sell them on Ebay or something, but that's too much headache and dealing with the general population for my liking.

Hopefully these 100 people are happy enough to spread the good word and more will follow. We'll see. Either way I'm glad everyone is happy with it. I thoroughly enjoy having it every time I use it.

 

Holy balls put me on the list, this is a 100% must. Anyone here not buying shouldnt own a truck.

 

I hear you. Thought about doing ebay or some other shop for my stuff ... no way I could endure that.

 

EBay's cut is too large imho. Worse is Amazon.

 

Their cut is one thing, it's more their anti-seller policies and how easy it is for people to screw sellers over. No thanks.

 

not just for backing up... good for steep descents with hair pin turns where you need 4low to stay outta the brake yet still need your steering to not bind.

 

Seller neck always on the chopping block. Hope you don't get any chargebacks. Let me see....take a 12 year period. I have never won chargeback dispute. Total bullshit. Grown ass men saying they didn't know their kid got their credit card......to people who actually have a core belief that all or any profit should be illegal.

 

If I do sell something on ebay 99% of the time I sell it in Used/As-is/no warranty. Even then people somehow game the system though.

 

@lapoltba put me on the list for the next batch if it happens! MT owner here and after reversing my trailer up the curb, 4LO was a pain with the limited turning radius. Does this 2LO mod turn off traction control automatically like 4LO?

 

Yep, your truck thinks you are in 4LO. I'll add you in just a min.

 

As @lapoltba indicated, the truck's TRAC and VSC, rear locker, etc will behave just as they do when in 4lo.

That said, if you are a 2016 Sport, you should have Trac On by default in 4lo, and therefore also 2lo. Ref default modes here
