    I have a question about my truck, it's a Tacoma "Force". I don't have the E-Locker like the TRD package provides. Before all the add ons it's basically just a plain Jane SR5 4x4, do yall know if it has LSD or is it a one wheel spinner?? Thanks

    should have lsd. Take it into sand,mud, any slippery surface and get the wheels to spin. You should hear the abs booster working the wheels.

    I believe if it is there is a sticker on the rear differential that says LSD.

    quoted from a different thread: Limited Slip Differential (LSD) action means the normal spinning of a tire without traction is controlled or stopped so that the OTHER tire on that axle can get power... This is a great bonus to us off roaders because we need the tires that have traction to work and don't want the other tires (in loose sand/ snow/ mud) to spin and bury us.

    LSD (limited slip differential) action can be done inside the differential (with clutches) or at the tires (with brakes). Brakes can be easily replaced as they wear out, but re-building a differential is a bigger issue! Toyota wisely went the brake route for their system. ##your truck should have this OP

    Hey Lobster man, why don't you stop being a dick. I am brand new to these trucks, that's why people join forums to learn. People like you discourage people from asking questions. I got it thank you for your "expertise".
