    Just got signed up. I have a 2002 TRD prerunner, SR5 double cab with a 3 inch toytec leveling kit and OME up front and add a leaf in the rear.

    Just wanted to introduce myself.

    I also have a question.

    What exactly does this little button "ect" do on the left panel.?

    And...Since mine is the 2.7 litre 4 banger, was the differential lock not available to me? How can I get one? Does ARB or OX offer one or can I use one from a different model.?

    Thx in advance and lots of beautiful trucks here !!''

    welcome to TW a little late from Columbia



    ECT stands for Electronically Controlled Transmission i think...like Tacomaman06 said...it holds the shifts a bit longer...

    i believe that the elocker was only avail on V6 TRD models (but i could be wrong)...

    you should be able to find one from ARB, Detroit, or Powertrax

    There are plenty of companies that sell these products...but you cant go wrong buying from Marlin
