A-TRAC Installation Video

I happened to have my camera while installing my A-TRAC switch today and figured I'd shoot a short "how-to' video while I was at it. This is literally one of the easiest items you can add to your FJ if you don't already have one.

This is easier to install than the '08 side visors!

Two quick things to remember:

1. Adding the A-TRAC switch is only for 4WD FJs with the locking rear differential.

2. A-TRAC will work with the locker up to 4 mph from the factory. No further modifications are required

Here are a couple of places to purchase the switch FJ CRUISER OFFROAD and TRD

Re: A-TRAC Installation Video

I still can't believe that it took a minute and a half, actually less if I wasn't narrating.

Re: A-TRAC Installation Video

Thanks for that. I agree, that took longer than the Tundra handle install!
