    Diff lockers in Defender?

    Hi everyone,

    I have been told that you don't need diff locks in Defenders because they come standard with locking diffs. I thought only the centre diff locks (as per most real 4WDs) but have been told Defenders come with front and rear diff locks as standard. Is this correct?

    They do come with Traction Control though,

    When driven by some one who knows how to drive with it, it can be very effective.

    Thanks everyone, that is what I suspected. I agree with the knowing how to drive. It makes a big difference when you put your wheels in the right place!

    130 puma has no traction control, this is correct my mate has one. I think it's only the 110 wagons and dual cabs that get it and special order utes

    AFAIK the 130s have no ABS so no ETC.

    CDL only 130's get no electronic aids but then landies generally dont need them because most landy drivers can drive and dont follow the toyoitsisan off road technique of point it, mash the noisey pedal and hope for the best.
