04 tacoma

heard that the new 04 tacoma (based on the 03 4runners) will come with a rear diff lock!!!

good news is that if this is true and our rears are the same, the 4runners will be able to upgrade with factory parts!

when i get more info, i'll let ya guys know!

to see if you have rear locking diff's, check for a button located to the left of the steering column

if you do, then you do, else you don't.

I heard somewhere that the '04 Tacoma will finally have the V8! I might have to chop up my 94 and make it into a real trail vehicle once I have one of these!

I also read in a concept mag they are introducing a new V6 for 04 as well. It's a 3.8L I think.
