Installing a rear locker

Also different worlds east coast vs west. Here a 4x4 even without locker and winch will go all places, farther, gentler, than a 2wd any day.

 

what are you kids arguing about?

 

Yeah here in the west my off-roading is mostly dry desert and mountain terrain.

 

You reply to my original comment for some reason kind of like a Douche knuckle (when I had said can go SOME places not MORE) :

Then you announce that you thought that I was saying a 2wd truck with a winch and locker would go more places than a 4x4 truck with a winch and a locker??? uh-huh


But then your next comment makes no sense at all, you finally admit that a 2wd truck with winch/locker "might" go some places a 4x4 can't, but that the 4x4 would do it more gracefully? Do what more gracefully, drive around the obstacle? :

Than you try and validate your original statements by saying that a 4x4 will go anywhere in the east coast but not in the west coast?

An obstacle is an obstacle, be it; sand, mud, snow, rocks, inclines, ruts, what have you... we have them all here in the west as you do in the east. :

Back to my original comment, a 4x4 without a locker and winch will not go all places a 2wd with a winch and a locker (and mud terrains) as original comment stated.

You:
First :cool story bro
Than :well maybe
Last: actually your still wrong, cause east coast.

EDIT: and do you really think a 4x4 without a winch and locker will go all places in the east? c'mon

Very important things.

 

Me:
You: I've got to be right
US to everyone else:

Answer to OPs question to follow.

 

My Opinion = arb air locker
Cost/estimate = http://eastcoastgearsupply.com/c-1065072-assembled-3rds-clamshells-05-tacoma.html

 

Lol your answer to his question after all that, was my answer in my first post? Thats so helpful.

 

You guys probably wouldn't be arguing if the example wasn't so bad. Add a winch to anything and the comparison becomes apples to oranges. Most things being equal, 4wd > 2wd on both coasts.

 

TacomaWorld, where we can find a way to argue about anything.

 

hell yeah!

 

If it were me I would buy the whole rear out of a truck with a factory e locker. Put a toggle switch on the dash and go. Might cost ya a grand but you could do the whole job yourself.

 

I could put a winch on a civic and drag it places a stock 4x4 can't go.

You know what that proves?

Nothing, except that you made a mistake when you bought a 2wd truck for off-road use. A winch on a 2wd is a bandaid on a bigger problem.

This forum sometimes.

 

If you ever to this I want pics and videos

 

I think I asked a similar question a while back in a thread and everyone told me that pulling a rear end that already had an e-locker and swapping it yourself was the cheapest route.
