    Axle Rebuild Question

    wheel bearings in my experience. i had mine loosen up, probably from me not doing it right, maybe 6 months after my axle job. tightened it up to specs on this forum, now all good.

    94 vs 95 birfields/axles (compatibility)

    This guy's parting out his 95, I've got a 94. Odds on the birfields and front inner axles being a match? Parting Out - 1995 Toyota Land Cruiser N. Florida

    Poor ARB bumper...

    I don't think I've hit anything with my slee doing 20mph, kind of depends on how much energy is transferred vs just totally applied to the bumper. The good news is all that force that went to bend the ARB wasn't transferred to your kid. Like others have said, I'll shoot my 80 with an RPG...

    What radiator to replace original?

    You probably will. All of the "better" radiators are on a hope and a prayer that they'll have even close to the longevity of the "crappy" oem.

    What radiator to replace original?

    That's my point though. There are these theoretical reasons why the oem ones aren't good but they have an incredible service record.

    What radiator to replace original?

    You should find one with a proven reputation of lasting 2+ decades and hundreds of thousands of miles.

    leaks or “cheap fixes” (negotiating tactics)

    I got $1000 off my truck $4000->$3000 because it had a valve gasket leak and I told the guy it was the head gasket and would cost me a fortune. To be fair, I had no idea it was just the valve gasket at the time so I technically wasn't lying. :smokin:

    Cel light not coming at start up

    when you replace the bulb knock out the head gasket too since you're in there

    So upgraded birfs.....

    Do the marlin crawler seals really hurt the oem inner axles or do they just fail quicker?
