@landtank
I'm still running your og shaft and wanted to get confirmation that the DC end has two zerks and not a third ball joint zerk like the new model? Many thanks.
The only Toyota/Japan DC shaft option in market for our 80 series is the landtank unit I posted just a page ago.
I'm currently running Landtank's version 1 shaft with zero issues for well over 40K miles now. I'm hoping to install his newest version after the 4th.
The JE Reel DC...
I noticed this straight away along with the cool military olive paint. Thanks for putting this product to market. I've got your MAF, 1st gen DC, rear drop links and now this 2.0 DC. They all just work like T parts.
Keep up the good work. I'm sure many of us appreciate you and your business.
JE Reel didn't make the cut. I had a different kind of noise at hwy speeds so had to scrap it unfortunately. Super nice mgmt team there though.
I reverted back to my trusty old landtank og shaft after it was re-sleeved and balanced by JE Reel. Joy --> back to zero noise/vibes. I didn't know...
All the joints and shaft just like the landtank unit! Scott recommended I use Lucas Red & Tacky every other oil change for posterity.
I'm hoping JE Reel becomes another legit DC option esp for us lifted 80 owners in SoCal. I'll keep y'all apprised.
I'm having @2KCruiser help me get the landtank DC fixed/refreshed which I'll keep as back-up with its lovely Koyo bits.
In the meantime, picked this up and will install today.
JE Reel's Scott has been easy to reach and handled all my requests/questions with aplomb. I spec'ed it with all...
That’s only half the battle. The real challenge for me is finding a trustworthy shafter who knows what they’re doing and will do it right. Would value Republic of Socal based shop recs. Many thanks. 👊🏼
I got a nice divot on my landtank DC prop shaft as I've been running sans sway bar drop bracket for 50K miles now (fixed). Zero noise or vibes from the @landtank unit so props to him!
This gives me pause to see what else is out there esp since chief landtank doesn't have one of his trusty DCs...
