? about 4Runner History

I was looking threw this link and came across this for the 99'

"Off-road enthusiasts will continue to find improved low-traction performance available through a locking rear differential, optional on all four-wheel drive models (except SR5 models equipped with automatic transmission). Sporting a 4.3:1 differential gear ratio, this feature locks the rear wheels together while in low-4WD, forcing both wheels to turn together."


so is this just a type o. or should i not have a locker from factory. i know mine is a 1 owner and from the looks of it. nothing has been touched on it. everything is stock.

i dunno just thought it was odd.

if you plan on doing any off roading at all, that rear locker will be the best option you could ask for!

My Highlander is an auto and has the locker:actually it's exactly like J.A.'s except mine didn't come with running boards.
