A-TRAC/TRAC/AUTO LSD Explained (Easy to understand, I hope!)

You sir, are very welcome!

 

I'm gonna slightly disagree. We only needed the first 6 posts. After that its all bullshit and off topic speculation. locked after 6 posts it would have been fine.

 

I didn't realize the benefits I need my own thread!

 

Just got done with helping a buddy with a front diff install..he said atrac wasn't close to cutting it so he had a front locker installed by east coast gear supply

 

Front locker is not a Toyota provided system. Please start your own thread for non-Toyota add ons.

 

But his atrac is, so...........

 

Stock

 

Why A-Trac is awesome stopping front end slip.

 

That's how it knows to work and doesn't stop steering ease.

 

I almost feel like I just turned on the TV and just saw reruns on so I'm turning it off.

 

I can't stop eating home made ice cream sandwiches they are just so good! I have been using oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and vanilla ice cream. So Good!

 

So my buddy I just got helping with the front diff install tried to run Clawhammer a few weeks ago but said he couldn't even get to the first real water fall because his atrac wasn't cutting it...he is now regeard and has a front locker and is ready to go back and try to run it again.

 

I recently completed an experiment where I bent space and time , and saw the past , present , and future

This thread was the same each time

 

He should have just removed his wheels and installed them on a stock Rubi, problem solved! No need to get all greasy sheesh!

 

Thats good shit right there

 

Well, again it is a little reading 101: From the very start I made this thread about how the factory provided traction systems work, and you and others keep wanting to say it isn't as good as a front locker... OK (even I said that is the case in most situations), but a front locker is not sold as a system on the Tacoma. Why is that bit so difficult to comprehend?

There is no greater traction system factory installed on the Tacoma than A-TRAC. The TRAC system in high range is also much better traction than open differentials only (without it).

How it works and how to use all the features, is the topic of this thread.

In all the videos of A-TRAC being used correctly, the A-TRAC vehicles reached the same place as those with lockers, so what if there was some slipping or noise? It still got the Toyota there (and without thousands of dollars extra spent).
