Manual transmission Fan Club and BS thread (All Generations Welcome)

Pressing the clutch in will cancel the cruise control.

 

2017 OR 6MT! Bought her yesterday.

 

Niceee truck.

Side note, so glad I live in a no front plate state

 

I have one somewhere if anyone wants it. I'm not nice enough to give it up for free though

 

Thanks, but once I saw it, I had to order it.

 

Does anybody know if the rod that goes from the transmission to the shift Knob is supposed to twist around in a third gen because mine is.

 

no, not normal.

 

Great

Now need to buy this for my Pro

 

I'm here to ask this very same question, I got that same knob, where did you find the plug for the sleeve? You know because the sleeve actually attaches to the old knob (or is it just in the pros). Otherwise I got a big gaping hole. Do you have a picture from before?

By plug I mean the chrome circular thing where the shaft comes out.

 

Most people seem to be using a 3/4" grommet from Home Depot.

You will have to take a sharp box cutter to the lip on the back side of the grommet to make it fit.

 

Hhhm so you just insert the gromet into the hole. I will try that, I hate the PRO shift knob.

 

Any others here with a similar knob for the 3rd gen. How did you deal with the sleeve?

 

Mine is a 3rd Gen. The sleeve twists off the stock shift knob (be gentle), then you unscrew the knob. Slide the grommet onto the chrome ring, screw on the jam-nut, then the new shift knob and tighten.

 

Are u interested in selling the pro manual shift knob?

 

sure does. even my 1st gen taco MT had cruise. with the 1st gen just a tap on the clutch paused cruise. I really liked that. 3rd gen so far takes a deeper push of the clutch so I pause it with the lever. cruise on the manual is nicer imo because most of the time the truck has enough guts to pull hills but with the at it thinks it needs to downshift. kind of annoying

 

Noticed you're from VA. What part?

 

when you depress clutch it pauses cruise. In my 1st gen taco just took a slight tap of the clutch

 

near winchester

 

Oh that's not too far from me. I'm in Madison. It's near Charlottesville

 

and I really like your 1st gen. here is mine that i passed down to my son
