do colorado's have lockers in both front and rear axles? also will they take 35'' tyres without being lifted?

I'm not sure what all models have, but my LC90 (Colorado but sold in Greece) has open front and LSD rear.

All UK spec colorados have a rear electronic diff lock, The import versions called prados usually have a lsd in the rear. All have open front diff.  You would need some serious work to get 35s to clear, 2" suspension + 1" body lift gives enough clearance to run 33s, 32s clear ok with just the 2" suspension lift.

Yep, mine has an electronic rear diff lock. It says in the manual that it should only be used at 5mph or less.
