Rust levels are through the roof tho amirite

I think we have something like 5 big Caterpillar power generators for the UPS at work. They only come on during an outage or when they need to help the town during peak load periods.

 

That's $800+ for something that isn't really necessary, stock 63s handle the weight absolutely fine, they come off of 1/2 and 3/4ton trucks already

 

Interesting... Priced as much as other brand 8k-10k winches with steel cable

 

What do they need one for anyway, they're fat behemoths that don't fit on most any technical trail

 

Don't tell Sean that, he would've taken his anywhere (when he had it)

 

He's got the truggy though for all the other stuff, but I don't doubt he would try it in the Tundra if someone dared him to lol

 

Not everyone only uses lockers on trails Ryan

 

He gave no fucks with that Tundra though

*remembers him going hard through the brush getting the flatbed on a flat spot*

 

Was a joke

Yep, and if it shits the bed I get a new one

 

Ryan just has to turn on all his lights lol covers on and all

 

Tundras are big. But they have brute force on their side to get places. Plus the auto LSD gimmick kinda works...

 

I dunno about that, I bet if you asked most people that have e-lockers that don't offroad, they would tell you they've only ever turned it on to see if it worked.

 

You said technical trail


I’ve used mine in mud and snow on forest roads, tundras fit on most of those

 

And if it didn't come on instantly, you bet your ass there'd be a thread in the 2nd/3rd gen section with someone saying

"DOES YOUR LOCKER TAKE FOREVER TO ENGAGE OMG TOYOTA SUCKS, OVERLAND LYFE"

 

Ok I'll give you that one

 

Oh wow.. I've been missing some of the people in there.

 

Pretty much every one that complains about the toyota e-locker says that, other than the actuator being on the outside and susceptible to damage I don't see how they are worse than anything else. Not engaging right away I guess is an issue if you only ever use it when stuck. I think they put the actuator on the inside now for the 3rd gens.

 

Not everyone gets posted in there, *cough @Kwikvette cough*....some mods don't bother posting it and others do
