    Triple stick turned out better than expected. Ran into a snag other the inchworm seal housing extension. Other than that things went pretty well. Huge should out to @loosnut for the garage use and lending a hand all day:thumbsup:

    Crazy... you plan forever to get something done and one thing you've had since day one does not fit... :annoyed:

    When I got the crawl box from Inchworm they shipped an incorrect seal housing extension. We had what we believe is one for an auto trans not manual trans. Due to that we were unable to fully install the setup. What we DID get done was basically mocking the entire thing up and getting it all in the right places.

    I'll post a pic dump later on after I get the kids settled down for the evening.

    Truck is sitting immobile @ the shop yard until next Friday when I'll hopefully have all the correct parts I need.

    *the rear driveshaft is 1" too short. :frusty:

    Regardless, my thanks go out to Jerry @loosnut & Anthony @PSU Taco85 without them this would never have been possible. :thumbsup:

    WOW! very nice truck! I believe this is the first one I have seen where someone did a front end swap to the 2015 style. Hope to have my 2015 looking something like yours one of these days.

    Bottom line: everything is mocked up and functions as it should.

    Up until today, as far as I know, no one has ever done a triple stick setup in a 2nd gen Tacoma. Today we made it happen.

    Another note: without the NWIfab short-shifter setup for the FJ case I do not think this would ever have worked. Thank you Mark @NwiTACO

    So the body lift wasn't quite enough huh? I'm guessing that's the result of clocking the transfer case, right?

    The BL was fine but yes - clocking the case required a bit more persuading.
    Learned that there was no way the triple stick linkage would come close to fitting without the BL.
    Also the FJ short shift kit from Mark was key. I honestly don't see it working without it.
