Easiest Way to get Lim. Slip or Locker in my 2WD Auto?
I'm not sure what route I need to go here: I have a 94 2wd that likes to spin one tire when going up boat ramps, sand, etc... It's a 22re, auto extra cab. Without going and buying a 4wd truck which I don't need, what's the best thing for me to do? Thanks for the help, It's such a good little truck and it does everything I need it too otherwise.

here's some good reading for you if you want to swap in a Supra LSD - I got my front LSD (4x4) for $30 from a "you pull it" type junkyard in about 1 hour from an '83 Celica Supra with the inline 6 cyl

the axle code on a 8" diff Supra will be Gxx5, on a 7.5" diff Celica Supra or early Supra the code will be Fxx3 (G=8" diff, F=7.5" diff the 3 or 5 indicate it is an LSD)

It's better than an open diff, but it's benefit still goes away if I lift a tire off the ground (without some fancy footwork). I went with an LSD in the front when I was out in Cali because I knew I'd be moving back to PA and an LSD is supposedly much better in the snow (on road) than anything else (especially in the front) - the benefits in the snow have yet to be seen. Out in Cali it was fine in the desert and on dirt, no mud experience with it yet, either.

To help the OP out... (and me actually, cause I want one in my wife's 91 2wd)
...anyone want to explain how you can use a Supra LSD in a 2wd Toyota truck?

Axle Code ID Article
all you have to do is swap out the differential itself (just the part that the ring gear bolts onto) and reuse the original ring gear -> The *official* 7.5" Supra LSD into a IFS diff thread

Lurk around the classifieds at some of the Celica or Supra forums, I've heard of some people having luck there . . .
