Theoretically - Installing FJ Full time 4WD on Tacoma.

So I had a thought.
What would prevent someone from installing a full time four wheel drive drive train on a Tacoma or similar platform.

Im assuming what will have to change is the ECU, Tranny(?), T-case, ctr Diff with lock, wiring harnesses galore.

What would be the benefits and disadvantages associated?

Thoughts? Discussion?

 

Your project Lets hear your ideas ?? All wheel Drive is somewhat different then full time 4 wheel drive.

What would be your overall endgame here just what are you looking for?

This seems more of a because I can project . I can see no major advantage.

To me AWD allows the clueless to drive even more like idiots.

Emergency Response or POR vehicles why build just buy a manufactured vehicle.

The biggest major problem would be the expense of the project.

Without doing lots of research into this project this is all guess work.

I would think many fabricated parts and wiring . If things fail your looking at building new parts far from home quite expensive.

No matter which of several ways one might approach this project I see lots of fabrication.

 

Happy Friday

It would be a lot less trouble and expense to buy a full time 4WD.
