I looked and the lspv is maxed out at the top (as in the point closest to the body). Also, the arm from the axle to the lspv is curved somewhat... should it be straight?
I didn't notice a place for adjustment.
If the lspv is at the highest point of travel is that MAX rear brakes? or LEAST Brakes?
Hey folks - Brake bias question here would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on this topic:
I did a brake upgrade on my ‘62 and it’s been great. Master, booster and 4Runner calipers.
I’m also running 33” tires.
Now, though, I feel like there is a clear over-bias to the front brakes. Especially...
I have 2 FJ62 Front Bumper caps - They're in pretty good shape - one is almost brand new, some minor scuffs the older one is missing one bolts which sheered on removal.
I'm looking for a Tire tool bag and Jack. Can we make a trade? Let me know - Don!
Ok, I did sort this out. And much to my chagrin, it was my doing :-) - I had installed an oil pressure sensor a while back (Vortec Swap) and the copper tubing had found its way into the path or the vent switch mech. So, problem fixed and cost was nada. Just me feelin' a bit silly for over...
Yep, winter is coming and I'm moving to Vermont. Brilliant I know... That said, I need to fix my stuck vent switch... which I've been putting off for a couple years since I was in GA. But now a "real" winter is coming and I'll need defrost!
I've been digging around for any diagrams of how the...
@Prairie Swamp / @too tall - Appreciate the suggestions guys. After doing to some more reading, I've decided not try to take this one on my self... just dont have the workspace and tools. I connected with Zuk and feel like sending the dif to him is the best path to getting my truck back on the...
Purchased a Yukon Zip Locker 3rd member from Marlin in Dec 2017 - Installed it and all was great for a while. I don't drive the my cruiser very much... and recently, with less than 5k miles on the 3rd member, a howling started to emit from the rear end and got worse very rapidly.
I jacked it up...
Thanks for ideas guys - here's a couple updates:
I changed the oil and included a quart of Lucas Conditioner. No change.
(This totally fixed the noisy lifters on my 5.7 in my van. No such luck here)
Put some SeaFoam in the fuel tank about 100 miles ago. No change.
I removed the intake today...
I posted this video on a couple Vortec forums, noone so far seems to know what the cause of this noise is... I posted this video:
So I'm going to throw it up here and see if all you "toyota guys" can shed some light on the situation. Happens when warm. Takes a minute to start again when...
Want to share 1. Something I learned today and 2. Ask a question.
But 1st, I want to thank EVERYONE on iH8. What an an amazing community and I cannot count the number of times I've relied on sage advice I've found here.
1. What I learned today:
That tired Relay Ends can cause "wandering" and...
