The Toyota Tacoma is an excellent small pickup and is based on a model that dates back to 1935. Nimble, economic, and powerful for its size, the Tacoma is a wonderful all around vehicle appropriate for any environment. You can use the Tacoma to haul small loads around or simply as transportation.
The Tacoma is a very reliable vehicle, and is used in harsh climates and difficult situations around the world. If the pickup is used hard, or if the clutch is used by an unskilled driver, it will eventually wear out.
Symptoms of a failing clutch include chattering or rumbling from the transmission, smoke coming from the clutch, or the clutch engaging very low to the floor. Also, if you have difficulty shifting into gear or if the transmission slips out of gear, it is probably the clutch failing, although it could also be one of the auxiliary components giving up. Changing the clutch can be a difficult task and should only be attempted by an experienced mechanic. Because the Tacoma is a rear wheel drive vehicle, though, it is easier to change the clutch than in a front wheel drive car. There are a number of parts required to change the clutch, and we offer them all in one convenient Toyota Tacoma clutch kit. The kit contains a new clutch disk, pressure plate, and throw out bearing. It may also contain a new pilot bearing and alignment tool. Replacement of the clutch may require removal of the flywheel. It is recommended that the flywheel be machined to remove any imperfections that may have developed over the life of the vehicle. Machining the flywheel will deliver a smoother ride.
