    I'm looking at regearing options for the ol taco and I've noticed some say "with e-locker" I'm just curious if they mean the front or the rear, the rear I know has an LSD but front "locks" because I can hear it locking but I'm just curious because I don't wanna buy the wrong kit

    Appreciate it in advance

    It means the rear.
    The rear with E-locker uses a different gear set. If your truck isn’t an Off-road edition. You should not have the E-Locker.

    The click you hear in the front is the A.D.D locking in for 4WD Drive. This doesn’t lock with wheels together like a Locker does.

    I've got a buddy who can do it or at least help me out, he literally rebuilds entire drive trains for a living so Id hope he'd know what he's doing lol, but regardless yeah I was looking at nitro and other places I've been recommended. If you've got suggestions though I'm all ears
