Why have a locker with 4x4? and **snow**

1 thing thats really frustrating about the locker is that it takes so long to engage.. what is the trick?? I have to sit there and mess with N, P, 4D and even drive a little bit forward before it ever locks in..

I know there must be a trick but i dont know it...

Its very un handy on the trail because if you get stuck, there is no engaging it

 

so do you leave it engaged then? What i usually do is engage it before i go through a section that looks like i could get stuck. because once your stuck your beat :/

 

The more you use it, the easier it will engage.

 

good to know! thx

 

Sorry guys, but i went with a Nissan Frontier Pro-4x and couldn't be happier. Has all the same stuff the taco has (I.E. locker, 4-wheel LSD) but with heated electric leather seats, full box frame, Four wheel disc brakes, 260 hp 280 torque, and all for less than the TRD off road. I still love tacos, but I guess this is good bye.... Thanks for all the help though guys.

 

Got any picts?

Ain't nothin wrong with a Frontier. As long as you're happy and it serves you well for many many years to come.

This might be a tacoma forum - but the automotive enthusiast in me can enjoy everything with 4 wheels and a motor.

 

Congrats on the purchase... I considered the Frontier, its a descent truck. I wish you the best with it.
