It will be loud, and I haven’t crawled under my
Taco for a couple of months, but the only risk could be the exhaust temp being exposed to
Something under the truck that may cause damage for long term exposure.. can you elaborate about your AWE came
With two non hybrid parts? Did you order a...
@Adam is it possible for you to return to the same office road location and drive the same trail to verify that the software and hardware upgrades did in fact resolve the potential issue?
Good news, I just verified- the clutch slave cylinder is mounted to the outside of the bell housing on the driver’s side, so not a PITA to bleed the clutch hydraulics.
Brake fluid is recommend to be replaced every two years whether the vehicle is driven or not, therefore… not a problem for someone that maintains their vehicles. Dot 4 low viscosity is designed to operate on colder climates: If the
Clutch hydraulic system is proven to be a problem in extreme...
Brake fluid: Dot 4 LV is “low viscosity” is designed to work better for ABS servo assemblies in cold weather. You could bleed out the dot 3 brake fluid and try this dot 4lv fluid. It is 100% miscible with dot 3 brake fluid and therefore safe to use in your clutch hydraulic system...
The airlift # 57386 is listed on the airlift website for the 4th gen Tacoma with rear coil springs… airlift may have a leaf spring option coming soon. An email or phone call to airlift may clarify what can and cannot work with each spring option-coil or leaf
Another option, they all have trade offs, is an air lift suspension kit- the bad news is that air will always be needed to fill these even when not being utilized… just a little air, so the bags don’t get ruined. But the benefit of the air bags, is that they increase spring rate of your coil...
This style/design of trans oil cooler is significantly stronger than the larger finned shiny aluminum models-

No need to bleed the system, just top it off. Drilling holes in angle iron and painting the angle iron should suffice, also any steel can be used to form any shroud to protect the tranny cooler as well. some tranny oil coolers have flimsy aluminum and they can dent very easily, the stronger...
I don’t know if a tranny cooler can be mounted in front of the ac condenser without interfering with the cooling system louvers. I crawled under my TRD OR, non hybrid, and looked under the cab, inside the frame rails. Lots of room to mount a tranny cooler with an electric fan mounted to the...
When a newer vehicle has fuel tank partially filled, the vehicle will pump air into the fuel tank and then time the event to see it the evaporative emission system is operating properly. If not, the pressure will leak and a check engine light will occur. This issues when the engine is off, and...
In the non free state of Kalifornia, if the truck is too loud- problem… but for emissions, the vehicle self tests as you drive, and also when you shut the truck off.. evaluate test when you shut the truck off. So if the vehicle reports everything is good, then not a problem
Batteries are less tolerant to hot and cold weather. Some EVs heat the batteries before the batteries can take a charge. Some EVs reduce cooling the cabin to divert cooling for the batteries in hot weather. I sell automotive batteries, regular lead acid/AGM/and Lithium… I can tell you what...
