Toyota 4Runner off road snow

Center differential locks rule. They turn your drivetrain into a tank. Got through 5ft snow with it, no problem!

not gonna lie that looks kinda sketchy

If that 4Runner is stock, it does not have a locking rear differential. It does have a center locking differential, however. I have the same exact 4Runner.

@EvenSteven2004 im only 16 so please dont call me stupid or nothing but i was wondering what is the difference

[EvenSteven2004]

@tundralover, the difference is that a locking center differential will split the power 50% to the front and 50% to the rear. A locking rear differential splits the power 50% to each rear wheel. Both are great to have, but all 4Runners of that body style have a locking center differential. And the last year of that body style (which was 2009), Toyota offered a Trail Edition that also had a locking rear differential in addition to the locking center differential.
