Popular Post Joey Mack Posted yesterday at 12:39 AM Popular Post Share Posted yesterday at 12:39 AM One thing i do with my yota when im pulling my 12' trailer with weight on it ,is,, I will unlock my hubs, and if im heavy or on a hill, i will start in 1st and low 4 in the transfer case and shift the transfer case from low to high in 1st, then carry on as normal. Yota becomes a 6 spd at that time. Been doing it for years, no issues.. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76313-pictures-of-the-week/page/2/#findComment-589319 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that can be done on the Hi-Lux too.No buttons for the transmission just levers.Front hubs are manual lock too.One thing I notice is you guys call them yotas we call them yodas....The latest Hi-Lux is all buttons.No fun to drive anymore.....

Popular Post davehummell Posted yesterday at 11:46 AM Popular Post Share Posted yesterday at 11:46 AM I owned a bunch of old Toyota Land Cruzers the newest was a 1980 fj40 I had a 65 fj45 pickup that I installed a 292 chevy 6 that was heavily modified and a later 4 speed cruzer trans power steering and an air ride seat out of a freightliner I owned an old scout and a jeep station wagon also and an all-wheel drive International 1200 pickup. I now have a ford that you twist a knob for your 4 wheel drive but it does have an electric activated possi rear. For quite a long time I had an M151 army issue jeep the one with all wheel independent suspension it was made by ford if I remember correctly. 3 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76313-pictures-of-the-week/page/2/#findComment-589327 Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 70-90k miles I do not think the automatic front hubs ever unlocked???? I have a 2006 f150 and I wonder the same thing but I can usually tell by the way the truck turns but I definitely don’t feel comfortable with the truck aging lol just like me now my heater quit and I’m having trouble running down parts 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76313-pictures-of-the-week/page/2/#findComment-589332 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Terry T Posted 3 hours ago Popular Post Share Posted 3 hours ago This first picture was Jan of 2014. This was the forth or fifth time that I had plowed this driveway, which belonged to a county police/fire dispatcher who had to get to her job daily. We aren't seeing snow like this around here, so far, this year but the temps for the next week and change don't get above the teens. I'm really looking forward to summer & getting back to the beach with Kim (second picture). Our hope is to get married on this beach (Sliver Beach, MI) this summer. 4 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76313-pictures-of-the-week/page/2/#findComment-589403 Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago We had a flurry or two yesterday. The solar powered motion detection camera has a pretty good picture too. It records every time a car goes by and sends a notice to the phone. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
