    12h-t camshaft opinions

    Currently rebuilding my 12h-t and had my camshaft inspected by a machine shop. They did mention pitting. But said it’s probably no concern. Just looking for opinions. Should I get a second opinion? Also thought about just buying a refurbished one.

    Knuckle alignment after throwing out shims

    I'm rebuilding my knuckle housing after a leaking seal and in doing so, the novice that I am, didn't take note of the shim order. As I read through the manual I now understand the importance of this and I'm wondering, without having to spend a fortune on getting hold of an SST from somewhere...

    H42 notchy shifting question

    Freshly rebuilt H42 in my '71 resto-mod.....since this is my first experience with a 40, I'm curious about the shifting. When upshifting, there are 2 distinct clicks to get it into gear, and with the second click, it feels like a couple of gear teeth rubbing against each other. Not really a...

    Rear e locker. Im a little bummed out

    I've been searching and searching, and can't find a video for rebuilding the rear locker on my 94. Heck, I can't even find a video that shows my model, let alone the internals. There's no shortage information for the style that's on the front. I didn't mark anything when I took it apart...

    Noob rebuilding 1FZ-FE

    Long story short, I purchased a non locked ‘93 LC 80series for unbelievably cheap, might as well have been free cheap. The body looks great, surface rust on undercarriage/ axles. The previous owner said that the engine with 300k+ miles and headgasket blew 12 years ago and has been parked since...
