Belt squeal, but only when moving? (1 Viewer)

Ya, that maintenance schedule is pretty demanding. If I had one and was going to Moab I’d have to drop the shaft and grease it before I left, drop it and grease it before leaving Moab and then drop and grease it when I got home.

I don’t think I have the fortitude to keep up with that schedule. And neither do others which is likely responsible for early failure.

I agree, part time is a better option imo...

From a 4 Runner FSM: note the recommendation for a Moly fortified grease
for the slip yolks and the Double Cardan joint.

FWIW

why is it that all front driveline issues and with part timing the truck?

I prefer using a single grease and Lucas Red N Tacky does it for me.

What?

What?

Got any kind of front end vibration- part time the truck.

Don’t want to buy a DC front shaft, part time the truck.

Bought a DC shaft and don’t like the maintenance schedule, part time the truck.

Yep, I guess technically it doesn't fix the problems. But they are only problems when your going highway speeds.

I had taken my rig wheeling and forgotten to unlock the hubs. Than I left the country for a month, returned, and proceeded to drive up the interstate...... I was like "oh s***, that's a new vibration" stopped for gas after 50 miles and realized the hubs were still locked. Turning those hubs was a damn easy repair

I have selectable hubs as well.

I just look at part timing these trucks as a planned event not a total solution to fix a bad build or poor choices.

In my case I was truest hoping that I wouldn’t need to go that route but it was always expected.
