So on the way to the gym battlefield parking lot, I get ready to tackle the first bump. Thanks to a member on here I deceided to hit it at about 5mph with clutch down all the way and no hitting the accleration pedal at all. It worked!! Other times I put it in N but that didnt really work to good in case it rolled back and I rode the clutch a lil but that probably wore the thing even though it was 2k rpms.

So this method pushing clutch all the way down as I go across the speed bumps and not hititng the accelrtion pedal won't hurt my clutch correct or wear it correct? If so...

lamvu

you are correct, although having the clutch depressed does wear down your trowout bearing.

No one seems to care.

I just leave it in first and go over it slowly. I don't see any big issue with that.

SilverKnight

so it affects something else?? Man I can't win So which method is better, clutch down all the way or riding the clutch slow?


yes but at 2-3mph the engine bogggggs I think, with the clith down all the way it doesnt
yella doesnt yours?

BTW I saw 2 yellow s2ks in the area today (rare s2k day)!! Yellows are all ove the place thought it was you again yella

Mine never bogs. I think it has to do with 2 reasons: 1) yellow doesn't bog; 2) I know how to drive. J/K, dude! The car will not bog if you keep your foot on the gas ever so lightly. I usually go over bumps at around 5mph, I think. I just leave it in 1st and go over the bumps naturally; no need to do extra stuff, like you. Btw, depressing the clutch too often can wear it out very quickly.

It was probably Mom trying to find you. I rarely ever go to Tacoma.

ahh fuk it then, next battle I will just go over them at 5mph fuk the bouncy shit!!
