16 degree clocking

Clock your Eco-Crawler up to 16° in either direction.

step 1: determine your bolt pattern

Notice that you have the option to select the bolt pattern for the "Lid" and the "Base" of the Eco-Crawler. The Lid refers to your transmission and the Base refers to your transfer case. Yes - you don't have to use your stock transfer case!

VF1, VF2, and VF4 refer to the bolt pattern between the output of the transmission and the input of the transfer case. Over the years, Toyota has modified and updated this pattern, making specific models and generations require different patterns for the EcoCrawler. Refer to the Eco-Crawler Fitment Chart to find what pattern your vehicle uses.

step 2: determine your shifter interface

There are two parts to this: the style of your transfer case shift block (Spade Type or Ball Type) and the position it sits in (Top Shift or Forward Shift).

ball type

If your transfer case shift stick looks like the above photo, your interface is a "Ball Type".

spade type

If your transfer case shift stick looks like the above photo, your interface is a "Spade Type".

Top Shift / Forward Shift

If your shift rails extend outside of your transfer case, your vehicle is a "Forward Shift". If your shift rails are inside your transfer case, your vehicle is a "Top Shift". If your vehicle is an electric shift, you will want a "Top Shift".
