I got the new drag link end installed.
Spec is to tighten the rear screw until seated and then back-off 1/2 turn. I'm trying to sort out what 'seated' means since there is a spring involved. Do I simply hand tighten (minimal spring compression)...
Had a hunch on the clutch slipping and decided to check it out.
My clutch pedal has always been lower (closer to the sloped part of the floor) than the brake. I hadn't thought much of it. So I decide to go check the pedal height, play, and...
@elkun1 has an interesting setup in his 40, after I saw that at night it was a no brainer.

Auburn LSD
I wasn't happy with the way the supplied spacer fit. Lots of vertical space that left the button end of the axles only partially supported and more than double the end thrust allowable by Toyota. I had an old aftermarket spacer from...
Welcome to the Mud(ness), your new home! :flipoff2:
You've got a beautiful 40-Series Cruiser.
Impressed with the old 3spd gear box (instead of the usual 4spd in most markets at the time). You said it comes from the Indian market?
