Alabama thread!

Get you a flat head screwdriver and press down on it.

 

No go for screwdriver and it is the primary connection for the trailer wiring. Got the other plugs off but this one is more robust. Couldn't find a diagram.

 

Looks like maybe try pulling/prying apart under the striations instead of pushing. I think that white part is supposed to hinge down and release those little black knobs.

 

i agree pull down on the white tab with flat head then pry flat head under black T section

 

The black piece with the 2 arrows. You have to squeeze that together the way the arrows are saying this releases the lock for the white part. Now the white part will rotate down and around from the side the black piece is on. That's where you need to be pulling. BTW it's a bitch with years of dirt and debris packed in there and years of heat cycles they get kinda sticky.

 

Got it. Here's what it looks like now that white part is rotated. The striations are weird and would make you think you push that way. Thanks!!!

 

For future reference you can disconnect the battery and spray the connector with alcohol to clean the dirt off.

 

When one taco gets stuck get the other and pull the first out lol. Gotta get that hitch for a better recovery point.

 

Install was going smoothly until came time for new pads and rotors s. One piston on caliper is stuck. Don’t really want to take it apart. Might just go buy one at o’Reillys tomorrow.

 

That's happened to mine a couple times I just replace the caliper. Much easier and less chance of creating a leak because you tore a seal or needing parts you can't get for days once you tear it apart and find what is causing it to be locked up.

 

Yea I’m about to head over to a parts store once I verify the other side still works first lol

 

Sup y’all, I’ll be wrenching on the truck all day if anyone is bored and wants to swing by. Just shoot me a message. I’m located near Maysville in Huntsville

 

I might go run through 600 this afternoon if anyone wants to tag along.

 

Replaced my radiator in the tacoma. Pretty easy to do. Had a small leak around the upper hose under the cap. Replace the cap, still leaked replaced the hose, still leaked. Discovered that the flared end of the hose nipple was gone. Know idea how or where to. New radiator after putting just under 386,000 miles on it isn’t bad.

 

So I guess I’m joining the overlander club.
How in the hell am I gonna get a 168 lb tent on my roof?

 

Wrapped it up this afternoon. Replaced the bad caliper with a new one.

 

Well got woke up to my neighbor saying someone was stuck right behind her house at 1 in the morning on my dads property, after cops getting called and me getting the drunk guy unstuck I figured out he had done donuts all in the same field I got stuck in. So hooked him up with some shovels and rakes, he was nice enough to fix it since I pulled his truck out. Neither truck of mine would winch him out used my bubba rope behind my blue tacoma, no action shots cause it was 3:30 in the morning time I was done and back in bed.

 

You’re more patient than I am haha I’d be pissedddd

 

noice.

friends.

or cancel the purchase and buy my whole setup and I’ll install it all for ya

 

Hope he got a DWI or something for that mess.

Same here!
