I'll take one.

I would expect the cable to be different on the RHD vs LHD trucks due to the mounting position of the knob and that it seems it would need to be routed different (i.e. the cable would take a different path from the cab to the intake). Both of the ends should be the same however. Maybe someone can confirm.

EDIT: just re-read and these are for LHD. Should be plug and play.

it does not go through the firewall. just dash to gas pedal.
 
I would also purchase one hand throttle. Thank you for coordinating this.
 
Ill take one
 
I'd like one
 
What cracks me up is Christo Slee was probably happier then s*** to finally get rid if his last throttle cable because it had been sitting on his shelf for the past two years then swearing never to order any more because he doesn't want to sit on that kind of inventory. Then some yayhoo (I mean that in a good way AKELLA) goes and does a group buy and 50 are sold in a few hours. :flipoff2:

I can picture Christo looking at this thread and thinking "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"
 
Forgive my ignorance but what is the benefits of having a hand throttle? I have never used one so I have no clue.

Primarily to increase rpms when winching. It's one of those oddities that no one pays much attention to until the supply dries up. I'm really surprised at how many people jumped on this, certainly more than the OP bargained for.

Honestly I was planning to make maybe 10-20 max group buy. I will contact my supplier in the morning due to time zones if there even 50 available world wide as he can get his parts from anywhere where Toyota's Warehouse is. After this group buy we will make Toyota work hard to get it's Hand Throttles inventory back to normal.:hillbilly:

They will have to start their old rusted assembly lines for 80's Hand Throttles.:grinpimp:
 
I'm in.
