    One thing to add to the list is this bad boy; mine just came in a few days ago -

    It's the plug for the front diff both @eon_blue and I suggested you get. The hex key strips too easily.

    I'd be surprised if an 03 double cab had a J shift.... Not sure if the J shift spanned across all years of 1st gens but maybe.

    Through research I keep finding first gen Tacoma’s that don’t have manual hubs, but have a J-Shift.

    Wondering how that works, thanks!
