Hey everyone just wondering if anyone can give me some information on if it's possible to change the button fwd to the old school way and put manual locking hubs in so it like the old school hiluxs??? If it is possible is it a huge job? Any info would be great. Thanks

We can't have manual hubs unless you got a solid axle :(

Maybe down the road something will be developed for our ifs...

Bummer... Is your hilux the sr5? If it is how have you found ure 4wd system had any problems engaging 4wd or anything like that? Ive brought a 03 sr5 and just got all 4wd fixed and working but its sort of left me wondering how reliable it is.

If you have a 03 hilux, head to the reckers, you will find manual lock hubs for your model.

Its the 05+ hiluxs that cant get manual lock hubs. Think you may have posted in the wrong sub forum?
