Baby steps by steps by the FSM steps …..

You think Mr. T put 1 by 1 rear drum brakes parts on 1 at a time on the PLANT A11 assembly line …..?

Hell no !

Fully loaded backing for plates was the only way for that show …

that's the whole idea mr. white stripe ...


i think ?

i will have a 100% ALL NEW OEM hardware full floating AXLE assy. when finished ............maybe

if i do i get the bragging rights ,

but one who brags prematurely is a FOOL in a FOOLS world .......

 

[ToyotaMatt]

Differential finally installed

TECH video will be posted below to over view this hurdle over the mountain pass step below

Looking way better than before, Matt!

 

[ToyotaMatt]

anything is better then before ........

the garbage man sure struggled with that old lunch box after i wrapped it in 4 HOME DEPOT contractor bags and them hid it in the bottom of my trash can on wheels .....

it was whisked away and rounded the corner 2 weeks or so ago

i should have shot a TECH Video of that final story book ending to the FREDDY KRUGER of all automotive parts i have ever come into contact with ....

Very shiny!

I'm curious what the breakaway torque for your limited slip is. Since your's is lower mileage, that would give those of us that have these with higher mileage a baseline to compare to.

I'd love to see the diff install video if you have one. Great job Matt!

Perhaps @cruisermatt can better answer this technical question ?

Since he hand assembled it with all the new parts and the few we re-used you can’t source new …

[cps432]

Looks really nice, Matt! I’m sure Mrs. Toyotamatt is proud and very happy you’re finally done with it.

i worked till 2AM Monday night late to finish her up ....


i think i used the worlds best possible parts OEM and fluids and lubricants ....


nobody said JACK about my AMSOIL statement about being the best on the market , nor the MOBLE 1 wheel bearing grease bla bla i chatty matty'd earlier A?

so i guess the case is settled then

AMSOIL is the world BEST Gear BOX and AXLE oil on the market !


so lets celebrate :
