Any guesses as to what might have caused the damage? Was it acting up before... impact or water... lack of use (hard to believe ).

I feel for you man. You have a lot on your plate transitioning at this point in your life. I wish I new more about the systems you will be dealing with.

If you want to put a R150 tranny behind your 3.4 and a manual case I might be able to help you with that.

I would love a manual transfer case.

If it would work and not interfere with the electronics. Lets do it!! Do it, do it!


After about 6 days of being home I'm headed back to do more signing up here.
My goal is to fix it in one way or another by them.

Heading back to town on Tuesday.




(Oh yah, it started taking longer to engage into 4wd. The last time it worked it took a LONG time. 111db was there on a box canyon run. I may have hit it a bit as there is a slow oil leak from it. Now it does nothing... nothing at all.)

Want me to suggest a signing co-rider to the guy here? (I found out that most folks use a co-rider to operate the trimble gps and you get paid the same as the driver)

Not that I wouldn't be interested... but I am working full time at REI now. Turning wrenches on bicycles again. It's kind of fun, plus cool to work with people that actually know where Escalante and Breckenridge is.

PHEW! Rancho Toyota in Rancho Cordova, Ca is a giant used parts source. They shipped me out the part for 115 bucks total and it bolted right up and fixed the issue.
Hell yah!

Kinda. Among yotatech folks is unheard of because it only has to do with 01-02 runners. they are the only ones with the lazy mans electronic transfer case.
Its nice to have awd in snow driving or high speed dirt driving which the earlier years don't have. Keep in mind that mine has 130k miles and I put on more offroad miles than most so it gets a lot of wear.

The best runners seem to be a 99-00 with the rear elocker which is also unavailable on the 01-02 runners. Unless you are getting the good looking 02 gray color. That color is worth the problems alone!

The 01 and 02's do have 2wd.
They have 2wd, awd which is 4wd with the center diff unlocked so you can safely drive on pavement, 4wd with center diff locked and the a-trac system activated and 4wd low.

95-00 have
2wd, 4wd center diff locked, 4wd low, and then if they have a locker they can go 4wd low with locker on.

I can get you those sections it refers to if you don't have the FSM already.
any possibility i could get a copy of these sections of the FSM? my dad's 01 which i encouraged him to buy has the same problem. 4wd light will not come on and does not engage but can go into 4wd low without a problem. with the key on and engaging the button for 4hi do not hear any sound. not sure where the 4wd fuse etc is located and how to check the other items in the list. any help would be appreciated. thanks
