need a new diff for front of tacoma .. - Fix_It - 15 Nov 07

April has my tacoma now ,and we bought the dodge and sold her 4 runner ..but she scared to death to drive it in 4wd with the lock right up front ..it is a handful ..

i dont have my original spider gears anymore ... so i need to find another LSD type carrier ..

i dont like clutch type diffs ,so it would be worm /gear drive type unit ..

what would you suggest to get and still have decent driveability on the street ..?

No one has a take-out you can have? I wouldn't spend extra $$ on a LS for thje front of a DD.

Are you still gonna wheel it? If not, go back to stock. Even if you wheel it, go back to stock.Big Grin I'd sell you mine, but don't have mine anymoreSad

I highly recommend the worm gear types, my Hummer has a Torsen and it is exactly like a trutrac. Mine acts very well even on ice, no problems at all.

you know who bought my truck? Have you tried wrecking yards in lower 48? I can't imagine it would be too expensive to get one shipped up here by mail?
