any fixes for 3.slow slushbox
Well since ive been driving my yota as my daily driver i was wondering if there are any alternitives to the slushbox. Does B&M make a kit or something? a short shift kit isnt needed just something to tighten up the box.

ahhh ok I sorta had that problem when i first go my truck. If you remove the rubber boot from under the shifter you will see a ball on the end of the shifter and a bolt that locks it in, thats all that was wrong with mine is the bolt just needed tightened up

dont know the part numbers, but there are two things that can be done and it greatly improved the quality of my truck. i believe ya have the r-150 tranny or 151, cant quite remember which went in which, but i switched to redline, which was a negligable difference, but i change the shift bushings, there are two of them, it tightened it up very nicely. im assuming ya have a 5 speed, and not a slushbox, but the bushings improved the shifting nicely, cleaned up a lot of the slop.

the 5speed is a slushbox...as much as i love my 4runner the gearbox in it is just terrible...maybe its just me, i dunno. but Ill chneck those bolts and the bushings..and a decent shiftknob would help also

try the shifter fix mod... i did on my 4x2 5 speed and it helped out a lot... i drive my truck like a sports car... but then again, i have also heard that the 4x2s are way faster than the 4x4s
