    Has anyone done this? the shop my truck is at is telling me that ARB does not make an Air locker for the 2wd taco. im telling him that he is wrong....

    IIRC the rear axles for the prerunners/4x4s are exactly the same.

    are they not???

    from what i understand all you are doing is not connecting the front locker line... which can be used for something else

    You tweaked an 8.4?

    Or you don't trust 4wp?

    I'm confused...
