Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Definitely, talking about transmissions and changing fluid becomes a voodoo ritual in the minds of some people. The big key is realizing what those steps mean and how it can affect things. That "two bucket" method where they were trying to "suck" in new fluid via the return line by vacuum pressure is a recipe for problems and it's good your Spider Sense told you the same. It's not designed to work that way, hydraulic systems like to "push" fluid.

Well there ya go, 2nd gen method seems like a winner. It really is a simple method on our trucks and should get slightly more old fluid out than drain & fills alone. But either way is still better than doing nothing in my opinion.

 

Best way is the BG flush machines....

 

My brother was a transmission specialist. After seeing what's involved in making auto transmissions work, when I need to do something to one, I just write a check. I can do most things on vehicles, but I won't touch those.

 

Crandon is having a free day next friday, free admission, free parking gate opens at 9am.

 

Can we do hot laps?

 

That's what a tune is for

 

Sure can, just have to make it thru tech.

 

Just sexy...

Goals for @WiscoPat

 

Last week I went on a trip to mankato minnesota which was the longest trip I have taken my truck on. The taco is not our families trip vehicle so it was a first. I got a nice 20.5 MPG average for the trip which is the best I have gotten since I got bigger tires too. I bet yall will have something to say about how great your gas mileage is

 

Yes...yes it is.

Oh, trust me, I've been following his progress for awhile. Though if I'm being honest with myself, for that amount of money it'd be better to just get a more capable buggy and trailer.

The parts + labor for a 3 link, hydro assist, coilovers/towers, bumpstops, driveshaft, etc. easily crest $20k (without sponsorships)...and that's just the front end.

Still, it's cool and intriguing to see how far the envelope can be pushed.

 

But side by sides are cancer so...

 

Don't think he's talking side by side.

 

The tail on that snapper. That's a dinosaur!

 

Something more in this realm, if lots of crawling and flex is the goal:

 

Closer to $50k, not $20k lol
