@iquemo - thank you so much for sharing this! Posting the list of bearings and seals used for rebuild. Gaskets - you know the drill - scissors and some gasket paper. Keep in mind - your mileage may vary! The sizes are only true to what I had to deal with in this particular vehicle...

Quick update, of all places - Ace Hardware had some bushings in stock, that were very close to what was needed. The list of bearings and the seals is coming later, after assembly is completed.

The engine is OM-314 by Mercedez Benz. Castings do have TEQ on it, but I didn't pay too much attention to it, according to Valley Hybrids, when Bandeirante purchased castings from Toyota things gone wild :) SO it could be anything. BJ25/FJ25 seems to be close, but still not the exact. From the...

You might be on the right track with the fj25 guess. I've looked up the parts manual for it and the idler gear seems to be very close to what Im dealing with. Attaching the top cover pics as well.

I have a feeling this was factory made, there are grooves in the gear shaft, that accept the bumps on the bushings. If only I had a lathe in the vicinity. Will try to ask ASB - American Sleeve Bearing: sleeve bearings & bushing manufacturer - https://asbbearings.com/ to make me some, the...

Thanks for pushing wonderful people! Happy to report, brushes have plenty of life. Total length - 10mm, usable (before the wire) - 6mm. The commutator tho, worn out almost to the core. Measured 0.99mm groove that brushes carved into it. Can't measure the thickness of the copper, commutator made...

Let's continue necroposting :) Looks like my problem was in the rust on contacts. Take a look at the pics attached. Drilled out and removed rusted fasteners, careful, the contact points don't like bending and will break off. Applied power to the motor - seems to be alive. Debating if I should...

Necroposting here since this post shows up at the top at google search. https://www.ebay.com/usr/l-l4248?_trksid=p2047675.m3561.l2559 Rebuild service ABS pumps. Looking at the feedback - great service. Mine died at 230k. Original since 1999. Researching my options...

Replaced alternator, original went almost 190k miles. Then I replaced it with Bosch reman from rockauto, this one lasted 30k. Denso reman went in to replace it. Didn't have to pull radiator or any hoses. Just the air box on top and steering lines detach so they can be loose and pulled it from below.
