Cabin Air Filter

Hey guys,
I think I stumbled upon something here! Check out this video. I PM'd the guy on Instagram and the filter cost $35 shipped.

Yes, their reusable and washable. Check out his instagram page @OCD4WD for more info.

There are a few posts about that filter towards the end of this thread. Mine is currently on its way and should be here by weeks end.

Thanks. I guess I’m a little late to the game. Going to place my order tomorrow.

 

Forget the filter I want the push to start.

 

There's one other member on here who has it, in their signature/truck mods section but I can't find them. I look under their name and see it once in a blue moon, forget about it, and move on. One of these days I'll jot it down.

But here's one option: https://www.tundras.com/threads/06-dc-daily-driver-2wd-to-4wd-conversion.48447/#post-1259892

My FGT has gotten along fine for 23 yrs w/o a filter. But since we in the blower motor area, my condensate drain drips hours after I've driven. I am in swampy SC but wondering if this is normal? Some to do it longer than my other vehicles.

 

I feel like that's pretty normal. I don't run my A/C much. Condensate does build up on the coils, though, and continues to drip in the pan for as long as the evap coil holds condensate, drips into the tray, which drips out onto the floor.

There are coil cleaning kits out there. Toyota makes a service kit. https://www.tundras.com/threads/wha...-gen-tundra-today.2558/page-1571#post-3126837

 

The filter works great. It was a really tight fit for my son’s 03 Sequoia. When you install, it will snap in once but you need to keep pushing until it snaps a 2nd time. The first time I pushed it in it was interfering with the the blower fan so I took it out thinking it wasn’t going to work.
Btw here are the before and after of an 03 coil. I used an 18” pcs of flexible tubing taped to the shop vac nozzle, sucked all the nasty right away, then sprayed some of the coil cleaner.

 

May be others but the only one I have saved is @MrDirtjumper from his 2wd/4wd build thread. He hasn't posted since last year but visited last friday.

Maybe I need to do this myself. Seeing those pics makes me wonder how bad mine is. You pull out the blower motor resistor to get to this?

 

Yep, pull the glove box off and then a plug and two screws opens the coil access.
The airflow out of the vents is so much strong after the cleaning.

 

I didn't even need to remove the glovebox.

Be careful when you pull the resistor out. It's both a tight fit, and ceramic, and has a penchant to crack to bits.

 

Have received 1 each from the 2 sellers mentioned in this thread and other thread. Have installed the one from Off-Road and volume does not appear to be lessened. Will run this awhile and then try other one.
