The GRJ300 has 4.30 diff chunks, w/ lockers or sans... who is going to be first?
Unknowns....
Will the LX600 accept the alternative ratio w/o issues. Some late model Tacoma trucks limit top speed when gears are swapped in. Toyota is getting tighter and tighter with operational parameters.
The Elockers have a weird actuation system, at least on the Tacoma. Toyota applies max voltage when the locker coil is first activated, then decreases it down to 8 or 9 volts just to keep it engaged. This appears to be for efficiency, as bench activated lockers seem to have no issue running 12 volts for extended periods. BUT....?
Knowns....
Two switches and 12 volts will lock em'.
Torquey goodness.
Locked front and rear axle goodness.
Roughly $3500 + the ride for the locking diffs complete.
