ok, so i am not a newbie. but i figured this was the best place to post this. my friend just got a 2008 tundra 5.7 trd edition and i was under the impression they had a e-locker and if im correct what would the button look like? ive searched on here "maybe not throroughly" but i cant seem to figure it out.

 

It should say "rr diff lock" if it has one.

 

tundras dont have lockers, they come with a Limited Slip on the off road ones.

 

I might be reading a little more into your question than I should be, but TRD does not necessarlily mean it has a locking differential.

 

the **TACOMAS** equipped with a TRD **OFF ROAD** package all came with a rear locking differential. the TRD **Sport** package does not. if its a TRD TUNDRA, it should have a limited slip in the rear, not a locker. but i am not 100% sure it even has that.

 

ok cool, thanks a bunch guys. really helped cause i found that button but wasnt sure if it meant lsd or it actually locked it. lol

 

WAIT, his tundra has the RR diff lock button? if so then YES, that fully locks it. LSD would be automatic with no button. if theres a rear diff lock button in the tundra, then it locks the diff. if so awesome, you learn something new every day.

 

No I wish it was. It's the little traction control button which I'm pretty sure is the LSD. Too bad they didn't have the locking diff

 

my 07 has a limited slip

 

No... the traction control just backs off the throttle, to keep from spinning the tires.... the lsd is automatic, and splits power between the rear wheels

 

ha duh i knew that i had an is300 that had the same thing drove me nuts when it was wet out. i always forgot to shut it off.

 

OK guys, not sure it all Tundras have the same configuratiuons but on mine there is a button (can't recall what is says on it) that turns on LSD so it's some sort of electronic LSD. Normally it's off. When I need someextra traction in 2WD, I can turn it ON, but what's pissing me off is I can't use it when the truck is in 4WD (either Hi or Lo). Is there a way to bypass this so I can use it when I want?

Haven't been on this site for years so maybe it's already answered somewhere... Gonna keep searching.

 

My 08 had LSD with button for traction control.

No elockers on Tundras.
