    I was just gonna say that's the likely culprit. There are additional cooling components with the tow.

    Mine is clear by a 1/4 inch. Why not shorten the hose instead by 1/4 inch. Much easier IMO. Bet I could do it not even having to remove the hose.

    @0210 is canadian as well John haha.
    Or is he a soviet spy living in Canada?
    The misconception is that canadians are apologizing for doing something wrong. We're simply apologizing that you are not canadian as well. You know like sorry you are not Canadian like us with Maple syrup flowing in your veins 'Eh

    That whole Canadians are apologizing because you aren't canadian was a satire article thing from a few years back from a Canadian network. It was a joke...

    Trimming the bracket is a great idea.

    Ive left off larger brackets on other rides for being in the way of service work. I'd look really hard before bothering to cut, paint and reinstall this one.

    "Sorey ", I was married to a Canadian girl once. All her Father would say is "eh...." after 75% of what he says. Randomly if he saw me somewhere, and nothing else, just an "eh?". LOL I guess it was like his "hello". He was born in Smithers, BC, lives in Kamloops and ran the CN AC4400 engines across Canadia ;) eh!

    just curious since the video posted above of the thing being ground that the engine cover is off.


    How does one remove the cover on the tacomas?
    I only ask because on my Jetta you had to pull up from the 3 spots where it clipped in...if you didn't, well it would break like mine did.
    Before I just start pulling at it I'd rather know do I need to pull from a specific spot or just pull from wherever

    hmm.
    I think certain regions use it a lot more.

    Same with the saying A boot. For the most part is more of a French Canadian thing. In Ontario I've never heard anyone say it other than the one french canadian guy I worked with once.

    Same with Eh. Don't hear it often here, other than something like 'better watch that hose eh, it could get damaged from the bracket so close to it'
