Little more of metal masher

That does seem like a valid complaint. Certainly more valid than my complaint that i wasn't considered for tge carnage award. Lol Considering I believe i had the same failure. 🤣 But, its all good. I was unusually lucky at the raffle. Even so, i would have traded my prizes for the days i lost...

Yea, ring and pinion decided i thrashed on the skinny pedal too much. Not gonna fix it. Well, im gonna fix the truck, not this diff. I'm gonna use a fj80 diff. Not sure yet on the gears. And not entirely sure on the housing, but probably factory but that means relocating my gas tank due to...

Could we revisit my parking brake question? I've only ever been through tech inspection with an automatic. Which is what the requirement is written for. Stalling the engine while in 3rd gear with a standard transmission and stock toyota horsepower is pretty easily done. Without any brakes at...

I couldn't remember the procedure, specifically. Thats what I wanted to know.
