Rear Diff Locker

Yes, my 96 4Runner LTD was lucky to come w/the Diff Locker. Now i have seen a million times how to bypass the computer for 4lo use only.

I read for the Tacomas but what about the 4Runners?

Thanks guys

Can someone explain to me what he is trying to do and why? I just bought a 96 limited and all the limited editions came with e-locker. I do not understand why he would want to change the factory set up on this, someone please enlighten me. Happy Yota trails!

The locker only activates in 4Lo in the stock setup, not in 4Hi or 2Hi

correct me if i'm wrong, but i believe they were still an option, even in the limited trim... to answer the query, like above- the ability to auto-lock the rear diff in 4hi/2hi. locked in 2wd would be sweet... i'd get myself into trouble...

I've test driven 5 limiteds over the last week or so and two of them /did not/ have rear e-locker.

Elockers weren't standard equipment for any 4runners, just an option for Limiteds and SR5s (don't think base models ever got them).
