    Try harder?? lol

    I've done plenty of donuts and drifting on dirt/snow/mud. :mudding:Hell my profile pic is me sliding through a mud pit with no interference from the nanny aids.

    Make sure you're at a complete stop when disabling the traction, thats the only way to turn it fully off you cannot turn it off while in motion. Just no complaining if you break anything.

    And Do NOT attempt with your ALSD engaged its a good way to blow up your rear diff.

    I remember I did the wire mod (asimple splice under the drivers side kick panel(grey wire mod I think..
    It Allowed the locker to be engaged in any mode)on my 1st generation trd back in the day. A locker in 2wd and sand with 33x12.5mickey Thompson claws was a lot of rooster tail fun!

    Toyota got wise to our shenanigans and no one has posted such a bypass yet. For the 3rd gen.

    You don't want an open diff spinning too fast anyway, it will explode if it's spinning over 3rd gear and stationary on the other wheel.

    A 3rd gen diff is likely to just explode on the highway under normal driving conditions.:anonymous:

    4hi in the sand with the rear locked as a spool was a sweet PINS cruiser. Had to usually Unlock to turnaround in the deep sand though.
    That truck is a most likely a fine powder pile of rust after all the beach miles I logged in it.

    Here it was in its native habitat.

    bunch of stuff - Bro Pro style
    My Sport diff is same as Pro and OR just no e-locker.

    Button up there by sunglasses holder - stop truck push button in for 5 seconds. Turns off your traction control stuff. Should be careful driving over 35ish...

    Push the abs button once to turn it on and disable traction control. If you push it and keep holding it down for 3-5 seconds it disables abs and disables traction control both. There you go problem solved. Not many people know that
