Hey guys,
Just a question for ya... I have an 02 Toyota 4runner 2wd...And i was just wondering... what the difference is between not having a locker in the rear axle....and installing the ARB air locker.......Off-road of course..say for instance ...in mud....Just wanted to know how much of a difference it is.


PS- Has anyone even done this with a 2wd SUV?

it will help you alot its not going to be as good at 4wd but way better then an open diff in the back go to ttora.com they have a hole thing about 2wd prerunners with lockers

a locked 2wd with a skilled drive can *just about* go as far as a new driver with open 4wd... because 2 wheels are getting power.

a locker will help alot, but it will not make you truck able to go through everything.

big JUST ABOUT................ even with a skilled driver, add a hill into the situation...........

hands down 4wd open/open is a lot better than 2wd locked...... but 2wd locked will get you places....

How would the 2wd - rear locked diff...do in sand? and minor mud?

Probably great, until you stop moving. It really helps to have the front end pulling in soft sand/mud to be able to get moving again. That's not to say that you would definitely get stuck..... but I would only try wheeling with a buddy who has 4x4 and a tow rope/winch just to be sure.
