    I received my Powertrax LSD and do not have time to install it. Does anyone have a recommended proven shop in the Orange County/Riverside area that could install it for me? Thanks.

    I got my gears done here:
    Premier West Gears - Mobile Differential and Gears Service, Repair & Upgrades.
    12490 Magnolia Ave Suite G, Riverside, CA 92503

    They were recommended from all the Tacoma world guys getting a group buy here.

    they also do the LSD also.

    Just got back from having Martin install my Powertrax unit. By the time we dropped it off, had breakfast, test drove a Q7 for the wife, it was ready! 1hr10minutes. Now, he told me he replaced the carrier bearings with new units, but the old diff was missing the bearings, so....... Drove it 40 miles home and went into the dirt a bit. It does engage/disengage as it is torque driven, but not harsh, and overall I’m pleased. Whereas before the typical Toyota/Lexus sucking computer kicks in, now there is a slight engagement and then moves both rear tires. In the dirt there is a little drivers side wheel spin, traction control kicks in, but it still moves forward pretty good. Far better than stock.

    Now time to shop for a blower.
