    OEM Crawl box ftw! Really for wheeling, it's amazing for slow wheel speed when you would otherwise be spinning the tires much faster if it was in gear and on.

    Not enough to have a build thread.
    If your clutch switch failed, you could still get the truck started with it.

    My first car was a 1990 crx, man that thing was fun. I've never owned an auto, love manuals. Can't find a decent one anymore that hasn't been riced out and driven to hell and back.

    Other than the video posted by @Squeaky Penguin I've used it to start when I had a hole in my clutch line. I could have just depressed the pedal to activate the switch but then I'd be spraying more brake fluid all over my engine bay.


    I haven't killed my started yet by cranking on it for 30 seconds, maybe more, when offroad climbing up steep obstacles that my engine can't pull with finesse.
