manual transmission

  1. DIY custom stitched leather manual shift boot!

    This was a difficult project. When I first started it many months ago, there weren't any vendors selling them. If I was replacing it now, I would probably just buy one from Redline. But, it was still a good experience. I just really like trying new things and pushing myself to learn and...
  2. Bronco hitting the snow in Los Angeles County (Southern CA)!

    After purchasing my ‘23 Badlands just over a week ago, we had an unforeseen snow storm make its way across Southern California! I took it as a sign from the Bronco gods that it was a time to hit the trails and break it in. It handled amazing and showed no sign of struggling with steep inclines...
  3. Manual Transmission Lockout

    First time w our Badlands 2Dr on serious trails yesterday—had a great time, very impressed w the capabilities of this truck—and got locked out of shifts except gears 5 and 6. Had been going for 2 hours, not over-doing it, just dealing w some mud. Got “stuck” for the first time in 4H, easily...

  9. 7MT Badlands Noise at Low Speeds?

    Hey guys - I have a 2.3L 7MT 2DR Badlands that was built the week of 4/25/2022. Ever since I got it with 7 miles on the odometer, it’s made this unusual sound at low speeds and I can’t figure out if it’s normal or not. It kind of sounds like an air suction / wind noise or something to that...
  10. Sold 22 Tundra Limited Off Road for a...

    It took 745 days for me. Picked up my Black Diamond last week and loving every minute of it. The 7 speed mt is so much fun to drive. While I loved my new Tundra, I don't need a second truck and didn't a steep payment for 7 years. I don't even miss it. I have an 05 Tundra that I will run as...
  11. Friction when depressing cluth

    So I've noticed that sometimes (not every time) when I press the clutch down there is a feel that I would describe as friction. Other times there is none. I have about 2500 miles on my Bronco. I can't tell if this is an issue or not. It's been a long time since I have a new clutch, so I'm...

  14. Hard Top + Roof Rack = Tornado Wind Noise

    Ok I'm going to keep this quick - Ive had my 4dr 2.3 MT Badlands with the MIC hard top and roof rack for about 3500 miles now and I can say without a doubt the wind noise in this truck is as loud or louder than anything I've ever taken on the highway (including a soft top 1969 GTO). I test...

  17. I Really Like the 7MT

    …like really, really like it. The clutch is smooth and lightweight but that really didn't matter much with the crawler gear in 4L since you can nearly come to a standstill without killing the engine. But if you do manage to stall, it restarts immediately once you disengage the clutch. I just...
