Im thinking that spare cab is 2wd thats why your not using that instead? Camper would be cool, chinook too. Thats the only reason i wish i had a long bed, so i can put a chinook on it.
I would put the rear on jacks and run it to see if it heats up without braking just to rule out bearings and drive gears. No heat then you know somethings up with the brakes.
If the w56 top shift is good, at a good price, id cut the floor and use it. If you havnt bought it yet, then id suggest finding a forward shift tranny and transfercase combo. Cheaper to just buy both already set up and ready to go. Plus, you can go double transfer cases if you wanted or keep...
It used to read the same at both points until i moved the battery to the drivers side and grounded the neg on the battery on the alternator bracket. Putting the ground near alternator allowed super cranking power. I dont understand why the readings can differ so much. If it read less on the...
If a toyota truck or landcruiser originally came with an am radio and you put in a am/fm radio, would the fm stations work with the am antenna? I am still trying to figure out why my fm doesnt work. I want to exhaust all possibilities before taking it to a radio shop.
Did you put the shaft back together correctly after the lift? The top and bottom u joints need to line up. I would buy a good used shaft before getting one rebuilt. Just check for play in the joints. I am selling mine for my 80 short bed since i swapped in a w56.
Wow, beautiful work. Beautiful truck. I am however sad to see you put speakers in the doors. I just went through removing speakers from my doors that the previous owner put in. Not really a big deal but the fact that i just covered the hole left by the speaker on my doors just hit a nerve i...
You can get a pre tacoma for 5gs or less. For a daily driver, the lack of power of the 22r on hills is disappointing. If you dont have a bunch of hills on freeways, then i would stick with a 22r truck. If you climb a lot at high speed, then the tacomas power will be more satisfying. I have a...
I had a 22r to l43 4speed then swapped to w56 and used the same clutch n flywheel. W56 came on the 22re and i had no problems. I would keep your clutch. They last a long time.
That is some cool stuff bj40green. Mine is the radio with 3 fm buttons on the right. Pushing those together still wont put me on the fm band. I cant read spanish but i am guessing that is what it is suggesting. Maybe something is stuck inside my radio which prevents it from switching to fm...
I have a 1980 pickup with fm am fujitsu ten radio. I had the fm stations before i set all the presets to am stations. Big mistake! Now im trying to figure out the fix. There must be a way
All the presets are set for am stations, even the fm presets. I want to set the fm presets on fm stations. I have been messing with it for the past 2 hours and cant figure it out.
All my presets are set for AM stations. How do i go to the FM stations? I recently learned how to setthe presets and set all of them on AM stations and dont know how to go to FM stations. I just installed it today so i dont really know what im doing
