    RTH: transfer case noise, shims, bearings

    I think it is shims which tighten axial play, no? Been a few years since I was in there. What is your set up with exhaust/tires/engine, etc. @SDH? How loud are your gears?

    RTH: transfer case noise, shims, bearings

    Nope. Took them out. I have heard from guys who have installed them since me who say they are "very quiet" or "not very loud" but when I question them more they always admit they have an aftermarket exhaust or mud terrain tires and they can still hear the gears a little bit. So I think it is...

    For those that have imported HDJ's

    I agree with @Workhorse. Mine is about to clock 500,000 kms and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I DD all week, work and play hard on the weekend, have driven it to Cabo San Lucas and back, and get an average of 22.25 MPG (US). If you know the part number, most local parts (NAPA, etc) either...

    electric car through PTO?

    Had a crazy idea, what do you guys think? Fit an electric motor to the PTO somehow, battery bank in the trunk, transmission in neutral, transfer case in gear. Drive around town in electric mode. Keep the diesel for long trips. It would be a bit of a project, but lots of info available on...

    Anybody with 3" stainless?

    First I had a 3" mild steel exhaust from Japan which rusted out pretty quick, but the muffler appeared to be good (some kind of dull stainless?) Second, I welded my own 3" aluminized steel exhaust re-using the Japanese muffler. That lasted about 6 years until it rusted off at the rear axle...

    Builds Euro 1HD-FT Turbo Diesel/H151F 5 Speed Manual LHD 96' USA Swap

    @Rock40 no noise with your transfer case gears? Radio off, windows closed, you can't hear anything? I am so tempted to try again, because I have heard a number of people say they are quiet. But then last week someone contacted me with the same noise issue....... so maybe there is inconsistent...

    Get to antenna motor - remove passenger door?!??

    Found this thread searching how to replace my entire antenna unit. What I discovered is that obviously you have to pull the radio to unplug the wire, then you have to remove the glove box to pull the wire through. It is clipped in 2 places, and if you pay attention you can clip the new one...

    Hdj81 ac

    When I replaced my compressor, condenser, and dryer, I put in one 8oz bottle. So leaving the original compressor I would think 4oz sounds about right. I don't think it's an exact science, just as long as you have enough to keep the compressor lubed.

    Identify H151 age?

    Sounds like I have to take it apart... guess I will wait for some good weather because once it's out I'm stuck commuting on my motorbike until it's back together!

    Identify H151 age?

    Does anybody know how to identify the build date of an H151f transmission? I have one that I want to rebuild, but I don't know which syncro rings to get. I can't see a serial number or any markings anywhere on my transmission, but I will admit it is a bit dirty at the moment... Example...

    So tempting... I need to rebuild my H151 first, it is getting noisy... can you hand deliver me bearings and syncros for that? :)

    Hmmmmmmm that is very interesting. Very interesting. I think that means you wouldn't have to change the pre-load shims on the idler shaft either eh....... I had no idea those gears would mesh properly with the original idler.

    I think you have this backwards. The low-range gears are 2 pieces (idler + output) but the OD gears from TT are 3 pieces (input + idler + output). Not sure what fits in the mechanical part-time case though.

    York 210 + AC on 1HD-T

    Still waiting for my royalty cheque :p Looks good, a few improvements on mine. Notably, the ability to re-use the hose that goes to the condenser........ not sure why I made that way more complicated than it had to be :bang:

    1HDT maximum efficiency?

    FWIW, I have a "stock" set up (was never actually stock in this part of the world). Newish factory-spec tires, no lift, a bit of armour, maybe less than 400 lbs total (bumpers and sliders). 1HD-T has somewhere around 380,000 kms on the clock. Original turbo with a rebuild kit about 100,000 kms...

    How to ID 3:73 gears

    I put a used set of 3.70 from a 60 series in my truck back in the early summer. I concur with what 70sguy said. I was going to buy the Marks 3.73 for the front, but then I heard good reports about the latest TT transfer case gears, so I was thinking maybe just get those instead, and put the 4.10...

    Anyone clock turbo housing?

    Has anybody with a 1HD-T or other Toyota diesel disassembled their turbo, removed the pin, and clocked the fresh air side to a different angle??? I've seen it people post online where they've done it on MR2s and other cars. (Yes, you do need to re-mount the wastegate actuator.) Just starting to...
