      Dang, you weren’t kidding about Marlin’s new site, it’s awful. I actually really liked how the original site was laid out, very functional. This new site takes way too long to navigate and find anything. Change sucks

      I’ve always gone with bilstein but they irritate me in a sense that you can get anybody who speaks English on the phone who knows anything about shocks. I would go with OME shocks. People seem to like them. As far as shock size, I’d imagine the...

      Door handles and window crank handles are a few items I would just buy aftermarket on eBay, Amazon or rock auto. The stickers can be sourced from James Dean creations. I’ve gotten a few decals from them, very good stuff.

      They are awesome. Very economical. Light weight and smooth. The PD diesels have some cam wear issues but even then usually get 80-150k out of them. Keep the proper oil in them and change timing belt every 80k. Don't be tempted to run wvo or...

      What transmissions bolt to the 1KZ? Will the W56 or G52 bolt right up?

      What a cool build, I can honestly say I've yet to see VW engine in one of these trucks. I'm super green when it comes to diesel tech but how are these VW engines? I've never been a fan of German cars but mostly due to ignorance.

      It came with an electric pump but I put a zexel 4M40 pump from a Delica on it.

      Guess if I read your post I would have caught that you have the mechanical one… sorry about that. Cool build man!!

      The 1KZ TE is a sweet option. I had a 93 runner with one in for a moment in time but never saw it run. Does this have the mechanical pump or electrical one?
    • Toast
      Ahhh yes you are absolutely correct. Clean the crap out of it, FIPG it really good, let it set for a day and run it. Let us know what happens

      cerakote looks cool. Where did you send that to have it done? How much?

      I guess pulling the other sensor is out of the question seeing that’s how you got into this predicament to begin with lol.
    • Toast
      Like use the other unmolested abs sensor hole as a guide to know what size sleeve you would potentially need. FIPG - Toyotas take on RTV. It’s better, trust me. I wonder if you could throw JB weld in the voids and sand it to match the rest of the...
    • Toast
      Can you drill it and sleeve it? Maybe pull the other side out and measure the hole it goes into. You could probably have a machinist make you up a sleeve. You could always try FIPG but I think it will ultimately leak…

      Looks similar to the ground wire for the alt found on the 22re

      With that kind of mileage I can’t see your rings holding on for much longer. I and many others have been where you are at and done only what was absolutely necessary at the time only to have to come back a year later and redo things due to...

      Went out for the first snow run with the RZ and it was absolutely tits. The increased torque over the 22re helps so much. I ran in the 2.28 case only the whole day. Running taller gearing and having that the torque to stay in that wider range of...

      Well, a texting teenager hit my truck while parked in a driveway. Snapped the axle and spun the truck 180 degrees. It was parked facing forward. Insured with Hagerty. Updates to follow. Tire and wheel hub were two houses down. :cry:

      Can you record it and put it up on YouTube or something? I’m intrigued. Definitely sounds like it could be brakes though. You could always pull the shoes out and throw the drums back on and drive it to see.

      Speedometer cable? Also check the plastic gear in the t-case

      Yup, that is what you have to do. I thought I had remembered pulling it apart years ago. Switch fully disassembled, you can see the plain green plastic cover next to the on with AC wrote on it. Contact switch and plate installed, don’t forget...

      An alignment shop can't really do much for these solid axles besides adjusting the toe (which can be done yourself) or helping detect a bent housing. They would have to be Toyota SA specific and make or stock steel shims and have the ability to...
