    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    I don't have a link but its super easy if you have the complete assy.

    Thanks, was looking at the rack if tubing at the hardware store the other day but wasn't sure what size to get and didn't have time to run out to the truck.

    Looks great, what is it? I am guessing a beer tap but I might be wrong.

    It's an oil drain valve. You stick a hose on it, flip the lever and it drains straight into whatever container you use. I'm planning on getting some skid plates so it makes oil changes a piece of cake.

    meh, after 30 years of changing oil I let others do it for me now. But that would be nice to have.

    I like the Hydrotechs. They are a little more firm, which is nice sometimes.

    How do you install it? Dealership does my 5k's for me but I would like to make it easy on them since I have skid plates.

    Next oil change, remove drain plug, install Fumoto valve, never remove plug again.

    If I had a 4.0 instead of the 2.7, between the Fumoto and the 4.0 filter position, I'd be able to change my oil in my slacks.

    I just saw the F-103S, it has a short nipple and removable hose barb. That's the one I should have gotten.

    Also, do not use the supplied seal, I just used a new crush washer. The one included is a paper type and I can see that wearing out and leaking.

    The dealer actually installed mine. I had to go in for a major service so I told them to put it in. Now I can continue to do regular changes on my own in kakis and a white polo. :cool:

    Anytime!
