    Yeah, Figured it had been a couple of months since any word on here so I asked, and added my name to said list.

    replacing plastic rollers on rear window regulator.

    I found a good deal on a complete tailgate in almost new condition so I went that way. New rollers and tinted window as well as a way better shell. All around win really

    replacing plastic rollers on rear window regulator.

    While I agree in principle, this may be one of those situations that has no "Genuine Toyota Parts" solution. As I'm sure you know, the rollers are riveted onto the arms which are riveted onto the window regulator assembly. I wasn't aware these were a part that was available from Toyota, let...

    replacing plastic rollers on rear window regulator.

    Wondering what people have done to replace the plastic wheels/rollers once they have disintegrated completely. I have nothing but rivets right now and will be replacing the window track so want to finally fix all the other things. Was debating some plastic wheels from a closet or drawer slider...

    4x4 across Canada?

    Oh, for those in BC, I'm hoping to go from Harrison to Princeton, as I have heard of the run that guys do from Princeton to Boston Bar, I'm wondering if any have run it going west to East? But also wanted to do the Skagit Valley, this is gonna be a tough one isn't it. The other thing I need to...

    4x4 across Canada?

    The title is probably best said with a hopeful tone I guess. I've driven across Canada before but stuck to the highway and took exactly 4 days to go from Ottawa, Ontario to Victoria, BC. This time I'm gonna go from the Pacific to the Atlantic and back over 9 weeks. What I'm wondering, is how...

    60 series 4 link?

    Cool thanks, I have most of those links bookmarked somewhere in this mess of a computer, and others for tabs and hardware. This saves me a bunch of searching so thanks. The only real reason I wanted a "kit" was knowing it had been thought through by many before me, and price, hopefully. That...

    60 series 4 link?

    I'm up in Victoria, BC. NOt sure if you head up this way at all. Assuming I went that way, I guess I'd just need to fabricate the frame end mounts correct? And they do make bigger than stock link upgrades for 80 series if I'm correct, so in future could replace easier or am I dreaming? I...

    60 series 4 link?

    no, I get what you're saying. Only time I ever see those upside down half leafs(1/4 ellipse) around here anyways have been on smaller jeeps/buggies. The "beefing up" I spoke of was whatever people choose to use as axle locating. My thought being that since only half the spring is being used...

    60 series 4 link?

    Now I'm debating keeping a bit of the rear frame, enough to possible mount some leaf shackles to and just build a toolbox over top of it combined with rear bumper.... We'll see. MACE> I noticed in your thread that you include the link sizes etc... on page 7-10ish. were these the final...

    60 series 4 link?

    Sadly when you told me that at first, I believed you. Well not sad that I believed you, but sad that I knew it was true deep down, just kept hoping. Was never an option. I'm ok with the 1/4 elipptical idea for lighter trucks or buggies etc... with the proper beefing up etc... but not for my...

    60 series 4 link?

    That whole section of frame at the back is being cut so no real option to mount with leafs, and not really an option to mount the axle any further back since it's already hanging past the body. Also longer driveshafts etc.. are awhole lot more work than I'm already faced with. With the...

    60 series 4 link?

    k well, I was speaking about the pic I uploaded, but then saw that he used bushwackers or something of the sort to hide all the carnage etc... That being said, I only want to use 31's and I don't want to extend the wheelbase/driveline. I'm just looking to mount my rear axle in the stock place...

    60 series 4 link?

    I guess I was hoping that some aftermarket company had gotten their s*** together and figured out a simple 4/3 link kit with all the brackets hardware etc... Seeing as how they sell a s***load of other stuff for 60 series. But I digress. Personally I don't want to stretch the wheel base...

    60 series 4 link?

    having said all this, I'm now reading that you used 1/4 elliptical for a bit. Is this do-able? That was my original plan, especially since I have to weld in new frame rails and crossmember. But eventually you went to the 3 link, reason? performance, cool factor?

    60 series 4 link?

    OK, little help. Any idea what page of that massive thread the link info might be on? I've gotten to page 5 and nothing yet. I'm not to concerned with flex really, I've just got nowhere to mount the end of a leaf spring so need another option. I can fabricate and do it all scratch, but with...
