I'm going to go down this road shortly, had my heater core die, so in the process I had to pull the AC box out, wasn't any pressure on the system, has not held a charge in years. I pressured up the system with compressed air and soaked down all I could with soapy water and did not see bubbles...
Son and I bled all the brakes and the special bleeder on the master. I'm pretty sure master is suspect at this point. Seems to pump up okay but if you hold it you can shove on down sometimes, especially with the engine running. On road testing if you kind of do a pump and quick jiggle of the...
I had noticed the brakes feeling weak on my 2005 Double Cab for a bit now. I only drive it occasionally, but its primary use is towing the camper with the fam. A few times now quick stops with the camper were alot longer than I felt they should be. Now I know everyone says the brakes on these...
The leaks near the powersteering pump are probably power steering fluid, that big union bolt thing used a crush washer of sorts, it may just be ready for a new one, or was taken loose and reattached with the old washers, sometimes they reseal okay. If it is coolant, there is the water passage...
Keep in mind also the 80 introduced the new coil sprung axles, they had to redesign the entire system compared to the 40, 55, 60, 70. The regular big carrier occupies the same spot that the tierod has to pass through on the 80. The tierod most likely went to the rear of the axle so the track...
Plumbing goes: In cab, three nipples on rear of gas tank go to hard black plastic vapor separator. Top nipple of seperator goes to pressure check valve (white plastic thing) in rubber line. Rubber line hooks to hard line coming from under truck through large body reinforcement under front...
I have interest, still got any of this? Really just looking for pump assembly, don't need the bags. I wanted to use it for towing air bags on my Tundra.
Depends on hours driven, but daily driving the "whiter" Sylvania bulbs lasted me about 1 year to the day before one or both going out. I gave up on the higher output bulbs. I went back to standard colored ones and they last for years. I did like the extra light, but for twice the cost and a...
One of those little headlight buffing kits for a drill. The compound is dried into the scotchbrite looking pads. You get it wet and buff, trying not to get the plastic hot, it makes the compound activate. I think I final buffed them with some buffing compound and polish. Came with several...
Bumping this up, if I work at it I can get this out of the snow bank, from our snowy winter in NW Colorado this year and bring it to you, be ready for a spring trip. Hoping for some lookers this spring.
I had to replace my grille years ago after a deer strike. I can't remember the brand. I think I could still get a Toyota chrome one then, but it was not worth the cost. I had the same fitment issues, it was good, but not perfect. Surprising I have had no cracking or failure of it, and that...
Voltage to the sender is approximately 5v, the voltage is created through the gauge itself. 12v goes to the gauge, then it grounds through the sender as I recall. DO NOT PUT 12v to the sender, as me how I know. All the magic smoke on the resistance wire will be released.
I assume you are...
That should work.
Although your ported vacuum may not be for "vacuum advance" if that is the original carb for your 74. The ported vac on those carbs was for vacuum retard on the original distributor. They will provide a vacuum signal at the wrong time if you are running a true vacuum advance...
I ran that settup for awhile. You are on the right track. I built a spacer, probably a little more than 1" thick to move the housing over like you have on the head with the aluminum spacer. I then built new "L" brackets for the cleaner housing to valve cover mount. On mine I had to lower the...
Pretty much all headers are not the same thickness as the stock intake manifold. Typically you have to cut washers in half to make shims to sit in the recessed portion of the half hole on the intake manifold. This is still an imperfect way to assure that the nut and washer on each stud which...
Asking $18,500 but open to a reasonable offers. Purchased July 2017, 2018 model 193BHS Coachman Apex Nano Camper.
Great little camper for sale, it has served us well, I kind of hate to part with it but we upgraded to the next size up. Has a queen bed and two bunk beds in the back. Great for...
I picked up an 05 double cab last year. I really like the truck, very comfortable, and my growing kids needed a bigger back seat. We were towing a single axle small travel trailer with our 80 Series and T100, (about 4000+ pounds loaded) but I wanted a newer stronger tow vehicle. Then we we...
