Adding locking diff to non-hybrid Limited trim?

[2wally]

I recently bought a 2024 Limited, nonhybrid. When I purchased it, I wasn't really considering offroad ability since this is mostly a work truck, but after owning it for a month or so and being recommended a ton of offroading videos on Youtube I started thinking about upgrading tires, etc.. but then started thinking trading it back in for a TRD OR trim. However, after doing some research it looks like the main difference between the models is the terrain select and locking differential. From reading online it seems like the locking differential is much more important than the terrain select, and it would be a lot cheaper to add the differential than it would be to trade the truck in.

So - all that said, is there anything preventing me from adding one to the truck? I know some wiring and possibly an air system would be required. Maybe this is a dumb question but all of my offroad experience to date has been on motorcycles.

I'm unsure about this, but I think the ORs have a larger rear differential.

OEM parts? Will be spendy and probably difficult to find. I’m sure ARB will have them soon? Rear ends are all the same size except The Hybrids are larger.

Nice truck choice! I've heard great things about the limited trim.
