I installed the Gen 1 kit in my Tundra about a month ago. And I haven't had any issues either ( besides 1 of the factory pipes broke at the flange and now leaks ) great product!
Sorry in advance for the hijack, I didn't know those were 'rare/special' I have 1 on my 40 that I was about to remove and throw in the junk pile. Mine looks a little worse than Mopdog's whats a 'real' ballpark value?
Yeah I guess I need to ask the mods to remove this thread (unless they think its a decent discussion thread and want to move it). I've decided to at least refurb most of it, to up the value.
MODS PLEASE DO AS YOU SEE FIT.
I do have a shifter but I'm not sure its complete or correct. I will add pictures of it.
As for the pillow block, I don't know the proper names of the PTO parts, is that the part that attaches to the front cross member under the radiator? If so, I have that just called it 'hanger bearing'...
I have a PTO gear box and winch with the 'drive' shaft from a 73 FJ40 with a 3 spd. I also have the taper mount washers and the 'hanger' bearing mount/housing(not shown, yet). Now the bad, I don't know how well any of it works, the gear box was not mounted to the transfer case when I got it...
