    For any of you with a '99-'00 Limited or an '01-'02 4Runner, can you answer the following question:

    When you lock the center differential (engage CDL), are both VSC and TRAC turned off, or is only VSC disabled?

    When you lock the center diff in 4Hi or 4Lo, the VSC is turned off, and the TRAC uses a mode that does not use throttle cutting and simply uses the ABS as e-LSD’s by slowing the wheel on which ever side of the axle is spinning faster, (front and rear) forcing torque to the side with better traction with added throttle at the pedal.
