    Well Howdy My 1st Gen Tacoma Brothers and Sisters, my buddy Sean and I have another video for you. If you've got a wobbly Auto Trans Shifter and you're getting tired of it, this video will show you how to replace the bushings so you can tighten it back up to a brand new condition. As a bonus, we show you how to replace the Transfer Case Shifter Seat too. This job was done on a 3rd Gen 4runner but it should translate very well to 1st Gen Tacomas.

    Here's the video and Enjoy the Show!

    Yeah man your videos are the best. I've used nearly all of them for one thing or another. You should do a video on a tear-down of a VF1A transfer case. There are literally no videos of this. Could be you want to mod it for a twin stick install, replace one of the bearings inside or a shift fork, etc etc. Show how to replace all 3 of the seals and use the right red FIPG to seal it all back up.

    I ordered all the wear parts for my starter and will be rebuilding it (brushes, o-rings, plunger,bearings, spring etc). Going to try and document it in a post but nothing like a quality Timmah! video could do :)

    Keep making videos man :thumbsup:

    Maybe. We might have a party in August if we regain our rights to have gatherings of people again. If you're subscribed to the channel. you'll see the video invite we make.

    Just fixed this on my new-to-me 2001 Tacoma Xtracab PreRunner and what an amazing difference! Great video and really simple fix.
