" Makes some growling noise when decelerating....."



ICK!

 

[Poser]

Only has 3/8" side to side play in the carrier bearings...

Tru-trak bolts have backed out....

Soooooooo what's the problem?

I thought you had a question about the stock jack, hehehe....... Oops

That's quality carnage! I do good work! Just like the 1994 I goobered up!

Thanks for getting into that so quickly, Steve!

 

[Poser]

Even more.....


Best bet would be to find a whole used third bud...this thing is full-on JACKED....The DS carrier bearing broke and has ruined the bearing bore...I do not think that I could possibly get a decent pattern with a new carrier and gear set in this housing.....

 

[Cube Dweller]

Ugly. Any idea why? No loctite on the carrier bolts?

 

[Hogan]

Wow, Brian thats to bad. Steves right I'd start looking for a different third.


Good Luck

Day-yum!!!!

Steve - is that an 8.4" ring gear or an 8"? I can't remember what these have...

Pretty sure it's an 8inch.

Thanks for the info. I'm probably going to call Jim @ inchworm gear tomorrow... Dang - it's been a spendy two weeks.

OH thats ugly!

I have seen 4 ARB's do similar. One had the ring gear bolts back out. The other three had the carrier bolts come out. My hypothesis is the Aluminum carrier on those heating and contracting causing the bolts to loose torque.

Not failure with the True track Cast iron it looks like. This just a didn't think to lock tight issue?

Improper install is the likely cause of these failures that you have stated about the ARB, as there are not any aluminum components in the ARB, and if red locktite was used properly, ie, the bolt holes cleaned/degreased a bolt will not back out if torqued and locktited in place…



What aluminum carrier are you talking about? Toyota does not use an aluminum carrier or center section...
