    Long strait roads are best. Roads with light turns are acceptable. When making a left or right at an intersection, you may consider switching to 2wd before turning, then engaging 4wd once strait again. If you forget, it's not going to kill the truck. As for parking lots, those are too tight of turns and the drive line will bind.

    Good advice. Gravel or dirt lots ok. In fact you really know your turning wheels will want to grip or slip.

    Well, 200 miles in and I'm still highly impressed.
    Truck is fun to drive again and lugs those unnecessarily-heavy 34s around with ease.

    Regarding diff howl I keep reading others are experiencing, I never had it on my last Tacoma and haven't noticed it yet with this one. I do have a completely replaced suspension (OME BP51s). So maybe that plays a factor.

    Hoping I never hear it.

    Damn. That's a deal. If anybody is on the fence, I'd jump on this one.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    Just dropped the truck off for gears and Dobinsons snorkel install. They also offered to install my dual spod Bantam setup. The taco is about to be transformed...again!

    Contemplating ordering 5.29 kit from East Coast Gear Supply. Can I order the air locker and have it put in the front to have front and rear lockers? I have an Off Road Manual Trans with E locker in the rear.

    You need the ARB compressor which is another $250. Instead, you can get the Harrop Elocker for the front and not have to have an air supply.
