    I looked on your site and didn’t see in your guide the configuration needed for a 2017 off road manual 6 speed what configuration would be needed for my truck?
    The Toyota part number for my transmission is :GRN305..6F RC62F
    The transfer case part number from Toyota is:GRN305..6F

    I emailed them and they are very responsive. info@northwestfabworks.com. Pretty sure I have a donor case lined up. Now for the funds for the eco box and figuring out new drive shafts…

    @NorthwestFabworks I have SAS tacoma with an Atlas 2 speed in it right now. If I'm reading it right on yalls site, this should bolt right up between it and the VF4 6 speed tranny?

    Also, any idea of eta on the driveline parking brake? That would be the tits

    What a fun cool mod … I need a adapter for my transmission to adapt an atlas. Thoes Marlin boys have given up on us. Good thing you guys are building a quality part and it’s going to be available. Once ya get a few guys running them than the crowed will follow. Your price point is totally fair. I’m calling and ordering one today….

    Oh man…
    This! I need this… I’ve wished for a lower crawl ratio SO many times. This looks like an awesome, well thought out and executed set up. Well done guys. Definitely looking forward to seeing these

    If I understand the assembly video correctly: If I source a donor case for the Eco Box, and use the stock 3rd gen transfer case, in theory I should be able to use the factory electronic case selector like normal, but I'll have an optional stick coming out of the boot for the Eco Box, correct?

    Yes. Like mentioned above you will have to extend the wiring harness(9 wires on a 12 pin connector) and breather lines. Also cut the floor of the cab to accept the new shifter from the Eco Box and get the driveshafts resized.

    I am currently in progress installing in my 2020 and using the stock electronic shift transfer case. Pulled the drive shafts and transfer case last night so time to start :sawzall:

    Awesome. Sounds very similar to the taco box install in that case then, based on reading and videos. Good luck and make sure to keep us in the loop!

    Curious if you've had a chance to get those photos of the shifter location in the center console for the 3rd gen manual transmission. After last weekend I am pretty sure I am going to pull the trigger on this. Clutch was not happy by the end of the day

    Making some progress.

    Have to grind material away at the back of the transmission for shift rod clearance. The shift rod when in high range protrudes about 0.980" from the face of the Eco Crawler.
