Isn't that what the brake pedal is for?

 

Yes but we Americans have become lazy haha. All of my cars are manual so if the ground is level I technically don't need a hold or brake pedal

 

If you get dual cases you can throw it in low low and just crawl with traffic haha

 

I've done that with just 4-lo before Was nice in highway traffic haha

 

Yeah but I go through drive thrus twice a day, and drive all local for work so it gets annoying as hell having to hold the brake pedal for extended periods of time, or putting it in park then back to drive. Once you use it, you'll never wanna go back

 

I thought about this doing this many times while living in the metro area. Glad to see someone isn't scared to try things out, lol

 

Seems like another tech item to make the masses even less competent drivers than they already are.

 

Well if I get some wooden blocks it would probably help me reach the peddle better, fixing the issue...

 

The truck also has some poser stickers on the back. I asked the salesman wheres my suspension and wheels that came free with the purchase of those expensive stickers... he didn't get it.

 

Fastest I can go in 4 -lo is about 25mph in 5th gear before I'm at like 3.5k rpm so it works out in really bad traffic

 

I have done this, regearing is a must

Quick question. How does this come off so you can change the filter? I don't want to break something.

 

Pull the front small cover off using a flat head to push up the tabs to slide it off. Then unscrew the top screw and the ones on teh side to lift the top cover off.

Did you already buy the Uni filter to put on the front?

 

Thanks! And no I have not. I was checking to see if it had already been done. I also dont know where to get one. Is it a toyota thing or and aftermarket up grade?

 

The uni filter goes on the outside where you remove the first small cover. Then you completely remove the internal foam filter.
Think this is the one everyone uses:

Thank you again! I will order that. Should I go ahead and take this apart and remove the internal foam filter if it's there or do I wait until the other filter is here?

 

Don't remove it yet b/c then you might suck in dust or dirt that will basically do what you are trying to avoid by replacing the original filter.

 

Thank you big time! This site and you guys rule
