Question? Do any Tacomas come with a Limited Slip rear Differential from the factory other than an X-Runner? Specifically the 4x4 & Pre Runner? And the other question...... If I consider a TRD-Offroad if it has the locker does it become an LSD when the locker is not engaged or is it a typical Open/ Diff?

Any help appreciated.

Dude, check Toyota's website. The TRD Sport comes with a LSD. It's part of that option package.

Yeah, my pre runner did. It works great. It kicked in a couple of times.

He is right, I have a TRD Sport with LSD. It is pretty nice to have in the winter. My road is never plowed and it helps in a couple of spots. I can tell when it is kicking in because on a corner it bounces my back end a little.

The LSD can be found on NON TRD trucks also...

I saw them on the lots when I was buying mine. Mine's a TRD Sport with LSD.

Get the locker.

TRD offroad and do the fix off of this website.

then you have the best of both worlds.. open diff for everyday driving and lockers for when you need

Yea I have the SR5 package with 4WD and I also have an LSD it's fun to leave 2 lines on the pavement.

The LSD comes standard on the X-Runner and TRD Sport packages and can be added as an extra option for $900 to the SR5 package whether it's a 4x4 or a Pre-Runner it doesn't matter they both can have it added to the package. The TRD Off-Road does not come with an LSD it comes with a Locker and therefore cannot have an LSD, There is not enough space inside the rear differential to fit Locker and LSD parts so it's ether one or the other.

Build a Taco on the Toyota website and figure out what options you need to get one.

Normally I would do that but I'm debating a TRD/OR and really wanted to know if it still has the LSD feature when not in full/ lock mode. Thanks to this wonderful thread got plenty of great answers to my question. The "Build-a-truck" method would not have told me that.

TRD Off Road will not have LSD. It is locker with open only unless you pay for an aftermarket LSD.

Buy a tacoma without anything in it..and put one of these in:

Actually, I'm not sure they even have one for the tacoma yet. It's supposed to be a limited slip controlled by vehicle data from the computer. And from what I see - it can be setup to act as a fulltime locker also. Pretty neat. I'll bet it costs an arm and a leg!
