    Did some searching and I keep running into the answer of "turn your traction control off"

    Not the answer I'm looking for lol.

    So it generally happens when turning hard right, between 5-10mph, nothing "hot roddish" on paved roads. Traction control kicks on for a split second just enough to bog it down a bit.
    I should mention that I'm on 35's. I cant imagine that being the reason, or it could one hundred percent be the reason, I'm not sure and that's why I'm asking you guys haha. any help is appreciated.

    Any idea if the tire is actually slipping or do you think you have TC problem?

    my work truck is a F150 and the one damn thing I forgot as a requirement was the locking rear diff, it flat sucks without it! It slips often on hard turns with decent acceleration,,,, in the rain though, it’s flat useless.
    My Tacoma has much less power, heavy ass A/Ts, and weight on the bed, so never an issue unless it’s gravel and a locked steering wheel input situation.

    The lift and the 35's are exactly the reason it comes on. I am on 285/16 with a 4 inch spindle lift and icon 2.0's and my did it as well. ATM my traction control is permanently disabled due to a broken wire harness for the driver side speed/wheel sensor.
    I believe it can be adjusted to not come not come on.

    im certain its not slipping. i have roughly 400-550lbs in the bed at all imes, decked system full, spare, rtt.

    i assumed it has something to do with that, im not even lifted 3" and i think with the 35's its reading funny.
