I used a the factory Toyota master cylinder and clutch pedal and drilled a hole in the bellhousing to route the line to a hydraulic throw out bearing, thus eliminating the slave cylinder and fork completely. It’s been working great with no issues

Solid front axel would be sweet

Hey, I’m still around if you want or need help with anything. Sorry for the lack of response here. The 2UZ manual swap is still running strong. Haven’t had to do any work to it yet but I do want to add a front locker soon. If you message me on instagram I’ll probably respond sooner @northboundtundra

The Kid would be epic, especially the adapter plate! If you wanted extra credit, would be to come up with a adapter plate for the RA 60 6 speed as well! I’ve got another friend who was asking for a kit too I’ll see how quickly I can get it done. The RA 60 6 speed would probably be an easier...

Yeah, just about everything is stock Toyota in this build except for the adapter plate and throwout bearing, including the clutch pedal. A list with oem part numbers is a good idea that I will work on. Now that I have some miles on it I’m thinking about building kits for people who are...

This setup is amazing. Can’t believe you want to sell it. Someone is going to get an awesome deal.

Got it. So a custom cv axle is a must. My tundra is a 2001, so does that mean that the Tacoma spindles are a direct swap for my year? After thinking more about what happened I think I either granaded my front diff or busted the ring and pinion. If that’s the case then I would really like to...

I might be interested in one of your roof racks too. Can you make them with a different front piece to accommodate a light bar? Or would you just leave it off completely for that application. I like the Tundra lettering too. I also wanted to get your feedback on doing the manual hub conversion...

Sweet, it would be cool to see another one get built! So far it has been working great. Last weekend I think I broke something after getting stuck in the snow. I got high centered and had one wheel in the front and one wheel in back spinning because I don’t have lockers. I guess it was a bad...

Just finished wiring up a rocker switch to control the add manually. It works flawlessly so far.

Update! Finally finished up fabricating the transmission mount and have everything in place. Did a drive test and everything is working great so far. Pretty awesome to have a manual transmission in this thing :)

That’s pretty much what I do too, except I have an RTT with a two person sleeping bag that folds up with it and I don’t have a portatoilet. I bolted mini d-ring shackles to the tailgate end of the bed to strap my cooler in place and keep the dry food in the cab.

Looks like all of the R150F transmissions have had the same gearing. Here’s a chart that might be helpful for anyone wondering what their gearing is.

It’s sweet! I have to finish fabbing up the custom transmission mount so I’ve only done a 1st to 2nd and back to 1st shift to see how it felt but it’s like a completely different truck. It feels light and peppy. So far I just removed the column shifter but after I work the bugs out I’m going to...

Update: Got the driveline hooked up and this thing feels amazing to drive! So far I’ve gotten to do reverse, 1st and 2nd. Once I have the transmission mount fabricated I will be able to do a complete road test. As far as the ADD system goes, I completely removed the 4wd control ecu and now...
