Nice truck Dean!
Hey guys,
Really nice to see my old truck on here again. I was wondering what Dean had done with it. Nice work Dean!! Trust me guys, this truck is worth every single penny Dean is asking. It´s truly a one of a kind (actually 2 of a kind now. I brought up another similar one...
PROBLEM SOLVED - I changed out the diff oil with Pennzoil 80w-90 GL-5. No more "buckling" noise. I wish I had looked right on the diff itself, there's a sticker "Use LSD oil only". That would have saved some time. Truck is running mint mint mint now!
Thanks everyone for your help! I love this...
Wayne - is this stuff suitable for a limited slip? - Pennzoil 80w-90 GL-5.
It's the best stuff I can find around here. And I can't find the additive anywhere.
Worst case scenario, I can put this stuff in it. Then when I ship the truck over to Miami in a couple weeks, I can have better oil put...
So I believe I do have a limited slip diff. My axle code is G975. I understand that the "G" is 8" and the 5 means I have a limited slip, correct?
Question then: Could the limited slip be making the noise? Is this noise/buckling of rear inner wheel normal on slow tight radius corners? Or is there...
Tapage - 77's are VERY hard to come by. Then trying to find one that's in decent shape? Next to impossible. Certainly not like the selection of Cruisers coming out of Japan. Took me a while to find this one. It's only got 94,000 original kms. 1 owner.
limited slip? not sure
elocker - pretty sure it doesn't have one. There's no where in the cabin to engage or disengage one.
mud_guppie - That kzj77 wouldn't happen to belong to Dean, would it? (used to be mine)
If for some reason the carrier (and/or r&p) in mine is busted, is it critical to...
Hi all,
I picked up another KZJ77 down here Honduras. Will be bringing it up to Canada in February.
I noticed though a funny noise coming from the rear of the truck. I notice it only when going up any sort of incline, at a slow speed, and at the same time turning. It almost sounds like the...
Update: This truck did sell. In 1 day in fact from posting it on Auto Trader. It went to a good home.
I will be bringing up another one though this February. Possibly 2 more. If you are SERIOUSLY interested, please send me an email. I am compiling a list of people who are interested. Once I have...
I'm getting around 23mpg.
Towing capacity is huge. That's all I know. Not sure what the engine towing capacity is for the engine, but the receiver combination I have on their is for a dump truck. Something like 20,000lbs.
No lockers.
70 liter fuel tank

Thanks guys. I appreciate the compliments. It is an awesome truck! I don't really want to sell it but I'm not in a position to keep it. My wife needs a car and I need a work truck.
