good day gents. i have an hdj81 converted to lefthand drive. i dont know its conversion history, but what i have is a power steering box with pps. as i have searched, land cruisers only have it on right hand drive units (correct me if i am wrong). my question is: could it have been removed from...
nice write up here by the author.and many informative inputs shared here too by other contributors.i have a box i adjusted hoping to eliminate play.however the adjustment screw is already flush with nut and still sloppy.i was thinking to rebuild to eliminate thia play.and maybe upgrade to 105...
the firewall stamp indicates a a442f transmission.has anyone experienced this problem on a a442f?symptoms were start up squeal that seems to go away when driven off.i also noticed a powersteering-like groan at higher rpm.may be related to the transmission.because steering doesnt make a sound if...
the squeal i hear upon start up might have come from transmission because it has finally lost pressure.brought it to the shop in a tow truck.the transmission just lost pressure then the atf light came up and couldnt pull anymore.no leak but smells like burnt atf.it was a start up squeal that...
i have been replacing rubber welting along the fender flares this weekend...so no updates yet until i started it up for the first time in three days,it's beginning to sound more like a bearing sound now.i will wait till it is obvious enough just hoping it wouldnt be disastrous
any updates on this?i think i am experiencing the same...on an 80.intermitent.i isolated belts bearings and pulleys by starting with fan blets removed.squeal is there.but diminishes as it warms.but is intermitent.may disappear when i put into gear then comes back.
i have isolated the front components since i tested it without all fanbelts and noise was still there
by feel, and by a deflection of 1cm at longest span of belt. but the noise doesnt seem to come from front of engine
does the steering pump also make the noise without steering input? even when...
update: i removed all fan belts to isolate the noise.but the squeal persists.only on start up and not consistent on how long it would make the noise.it almost sounded like a fanbelt,pulley or bearing but not.i probed with a hose to my ear as suggested.power steering pump and vacuum pump are...
i topped power steering fluid up.no fluid leaks except at the power steering pump where there is a mist of atf.and pulleys look ok.i have been probing with a hose during start up.i will try as you suggested to remove one belt at a time to isolate the noise.thanks
fellows, i need your wisdom on this since this has been driving me nuts. the rig is 1hdt and almost 300K on the clock. when i start it up in the morning there is this squeal. i replaced all belts with original toyota. i replaced ac tensioner bearing, alternator bearings. i also replaced water...
