I have a 71 Fj40 and the tcase was leaking from the ebrake. I replaced the seal, but found that the ebrake drum shaft was badly pitted. No way that was going to seal up. I just happened to have a spare tcase from an older 45 that had a good drum so used that one. I do want to repair the pitted drum, though, so I have a spare.
I have heard people talk about speedi-sleeves and the trivia section says: CR (Chicago Rawhide) 99177
My question is what exactly is a speedi-sleeve? How would it be installed? The site isn't showing pictures at the moment. I assume it is a machined sleeve that would be press fit after turning the shaft to match the ID of the sleeve. Am I close?
Can ya tell me anything else, like where to get one, , what they cost, what did it cost someone to get their ebrake drum restored, etc...
Thanks,
Steve
