In this video we show you how to easy it is to convert you top shifting transfer case to work with a Twin Stick. Twin Stick lets you separate the 2wd/4wd and the Low/High gears. The biggest benifit of this is that you can now shift into 2wd Low.
Twin Sticks work well when you have a locker in your front axle and you need to make a sharp turn on the trail, then you can shift the Transfer Case into 2wd to help you make the turn easier.

Your delivery is so professional that i almost blushed when you said tiny ass ball. Sick display of knowledge. I just got an rf1a case for a 1uz build and this helped me understand the benefit and needs for twin sticks
Is the bed bobbed on the pickup on your right?
Old hilix you could go into low 2 wheel driver if you didn't lock the hubs
Any advice on what to do if the inner pin does not come out
I got the same transfer case good shit man
Love them!
7:20 would it be possible to make a little jig to mount the tcase to and do the whole job upside down, so that everything falls on the floor/in your face instead of inside the tcase?
I don’t even need this on my yotas but I need this.
I was able to catch the pin without dripping it with some small little magnets
Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you for the very informative video. I see that this is at least three years old but if you were still answering questions… Where did you get the fenders on the Toyota or did you make them?
More 1st gen 4R videos please!
I don't have one to work on any more... What do you want to see?
Is that little pin that locks the shafts together an electrical function like my landcruiser
Can this be done without separating the case
great video, thanks
Thanks
Yeehaw! Ya nice to be able to do 2 wheel pell's and run a low range in 2wd well with duels ya can use one box ! Ive done a few of the tripple sticks it coms out clean if ya have center cinsole!
True, but now I can do Low Low 2wd 😁
SnailTrail4x4 ya sure can ! Just do t put to much tourqe on rear gears only™
@@danzoller7397 haha I'll be careful 😉
Where can i get this shifter.
Hello, great video.
You could show the handbrake system to the cardan.
Or tell me if you already have it in a video.
Greetings from Chile.
Thank you.
The hand brake is a completely different system, is there something you have a question about?
@@SnailTrail4x4 Yes, I have many questions.
I would like to know in video or through photos how the handbrake system is held, the disc is clear where it goes but the caliper is not seen in the video.
I am interested in knowing how it is to imitate that configuration in my toyota hilux.
I appreciate the promptness and dedication of your time to my questions.
PS: I use google translate, sorry if my English is not good. I am working on it.
Greetings from Chile.
Thank you.
@@rlx6969 the disk brake conversation doesn't have a handbrake (Emergency Brake).
I think what I'm going to do is run a cable from the hand brake to the brake pedal
Could you show me a video of the brake system in the cardan at the exit of the transfer case, please.
Thank you.
is the original 2-4high/4low shifter still usable? so it has triple shift, or is it now unusable and use only the 2 rear new ones? thanks
Awesome man
Can I do that on a Lc 80 fulltime tc?
I have 1996 land cruiser 70 series SWB and when I want to run 4H or 4L (but 2 wheels drive) just don’t lock the front hub.
You can do that with this rig as well, but now you don't have to get out of the vehicle
This is so cool, do both reduction cases of the dual case need to be from the same year and top shift to make them fit?
The first Tcase needs to match the transmission, the second one has to be a top shifter
@@SnailTrail4x4 thank you for the reply! I have a top shift and a forward shift so I will use them accordingly
What years did Toyota use this style of tcase? Great video
I am not sure what you mean... what is style of trade?
@@SnailTrail4x4 dam auto correct can go straight to heal. I meant tcase
I know this is an older video, but from what I can tell I have a forward shift in my truck (87 4x4 G52 trans). According to Trail gear I would need to either modify my transmission shifter or get a short throw shifter to not cause interference between the sticks. Any input?
I’m not running dual cases. All factory for now .
Just wondering (I’m new to off-roading) but why couldn’t you just drop your main shifter to to a low gear. Is that not possible while in 4x4 mode ?
This mod allows you to shift the front axile into 2wd with out diff locking the front (so the rear axilt not active). You main shifter just determines which gear you are in whether in 2wd or 4 wheel drive.
In the factory set up when you are in 2wd it is only the rear axile that is active. The factory set up will not allow you 2wd with the front axile.
It is a nice mode that allows you the flexibility to have 2wd with the front axil.
If you a new to 4wd driving, it is not really a necessary thing, it is not a common thing & I have never seen it in factory configurations.
I am not super experienced but I would probably look @ getting air lockers back & front or @least front before this mod even though it is not an expensive mod.
I think you would get more use out of the lockers as a newbie.
Perhaps money better spent on your next overland trip.
& maybe down the track when you have more experience & better able to judge its usfulness, then consider doing it.
That is super cool !!! I wish someone would figure out how to do that in the new electronic trucks. 17' TRD Off Road to be exact , haha.
I think you can but you need to have dual cases
So keep the pin out ? I've also herd you have to cut the shift rail?
Keeping the pin out let's you do twin stick. But you need to cut the shift lever to go duel cases
I'm in the middle of the 4.70:1 swap and twin stick conversation.. on a new tcase.. busted all the gears in my old one.. Thanks for the info!
So with this mod do you have to put the twin stick setup on the back transfer case with duel transfer cases?
It doesn't have to be dual cases, you could add twin sticks to a single case
@@SnailTrail4x4 I know, but what I meant was when you add another transfer case do you put the twin sticks on the back transfer case or the front transfer case
@@citabria4804 You don't need to put twin sticks on either You can use a stock shifter. The front case doesn't need twin sticks ever because it only has one shifting mode, high/low.
@@SnailTrail4x4 ok thank you
I've learned you need a torch to heat the plug to get them out
Hey nice video, I have a question maybe you can help me with. I need to remove the manual transfer case shifter out of 2010 4runner so I can cut and re weld the shifter. Do I need to remove the 4 bolts and pull the whole shifter out or can you just rrmo e the snap ring and pull the shifter out? Do you need to put the shifter in neutral when doing this? I did 4wd conversion on my tacoma and need to reroute the shifter so it sits in better spot in the coin slot. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I'd pull the 4 bolts and then do further disassembly with the system out of the rig. I'm not to familiar with the 2010 set up.
I have a 05 Toyota Tacoma I want to turn into a rock crawler can I use this mod on my truck
If you're using a crawler box yes.
I'm front Australia so we don't have dual transfer cases to my knowledge. How do you switch from your 2.8 to your 2.4 to both?
Marlin crawler makes an adapter that lets you connect a reduction box inline with a transfer case. Then you have all these shifters.
Heaps of people have dual transfers in aus. Me being one of them😂
@@ruben1951 What car do you have? I guess I just haven't heard of any on the forums or seen any in person
So do you put the detent back in?!?!
Yes! So the lever stays in place
So do u end up with 4 shifters or once u do the mod or do u only use the twinstick and the old 4wd shifter now obsolete
Old shifter is obsolete. The twin stick replaces it.
@@SnailTrail4x4 so the twin stick goes right where the old 4x4 shifter goes correct or do you take the plate off behind the the 4x4 shifter and install your Twin stick there
Just unlock the hubs and you get 2 wheel drive low
If it’s stock it’s a 2.28 low gear reduction
Correct
I can already do 2wd low by not engaging my front hubs, what's the point of this??
More options really, now I can switch from 4WD to 2WD on the trail without getting out of the rig, I can also go into 2WD Low Low. But all in all it's just another tool that isn't required like an automatic transmission
You don’t have to get out and unlock your hubs if you do this 🤷🏻♂️
@@Crawlerjamie but my hubs are always unlocked unless I'm in 4low
That is also splitting half your power to nothing. You need every pony you can get in these yotas
Does this apply to 88 4runner v6 3.0 5 speed as well or is more mods needed ?
I imagine this wouldn’t fit with a bench seat? 😕
Nope, you would need to cut the bench a little or get bucket seats like I did.
Curious if anyone has coupled this twin stick setup with a hybrid electric transfer case (highlander rav4) for electric support low speed off roading.
That sounds interesting, I'm unaware of anyone doing that but if anybody knows more information please let us know.
Do I have to do this with a triple stick???? I can't find an installation on triple sticks for Toyotas??.?..:^(
I've never installed one, I'm not sure, but I would figure it would be close. You need to remove that pin so that you can shift the rods independently
@@SnailTrail4x4 so do end up with 4 sticks total or is the old 4x4 stick obsolete or is that where your twin stick is intalled
@@joshualeissa2912 -- the old stick is obsolete. What you see in the thumbnail pic is how it looks
