2lo in a taco?

I was wondering if it was possible to make a taco transfer case have 2lo.
Since i know of the old FJ60s (friend has one) that you can remove a bracket or something and it allows the cruiser to have 2lo (besides going into 4lo and leaving the hubs unlocked...i can do that already).

Is there anything similar that is possible on a taco?

 

not that i know of what you are looking for is a twin stick setup

 

?

 

Take off your propeller shaft.

 

Yes, if you have manual locking front hubs. Just put it in 4L and don't lock the hubs. Is very good for creeping down hills.

 

yes i do that when i dont feel like i need 4wd but i need low range. I was just curious if there was a land cruiser-type mod where you could remove a bracket or something and the transfer case stick would just put the truck into 2lo.

its fine the way it is though.

 

You can get an atlas transfer case it has 2 lo 2 hi 4 hi and 4 lo

 

expensive

 

Yea but its an awesome transfer case

 

Here is a link to the WATTORA site that list the 2lo mod. I did this mod myself and i have to say, it was stupid simple and prob. my fav. to date!!!

 

i get file not found on that one

 

Do you have the J-Shifter or the shifter w/ a button?

 

j shifter. the button wasnt introduced until the 01 right?

 

Right!, then your like me. the only way to have 2Lo is Twin Sticks.

 

4 lo with unlocked front hubs works for me just fine. Don't really see a need in changing anything when it is that simple.

Murph

 

yeah it works. I was just wondering if there was a mod like a 60 series land cruiser where there is 2lo (cruisers also have manual hubs so 4lo and unlocked hubs would work for them as well)

 

somewhat off topic question. im looking to buy a tacoma and was wondering about the hubs are they all lockable? im researching so dont kill me

 

No. TRD off-roads come with lockers but anyone one this site with a 2 gen tacoma has aftermarket hubs if they lock.

 

until 2001, all base model (non SR5) 4wd tacos had manual locking hubs, like mine does. when the 01-04s came out, toyota changed to all auto hubs i believe. so yes, any post '00 taco with manual hubs has aftermarket ones.
