- NEW , FRESH , all JAPAN Spec. Parts Rear Propeller Shaft Installation update :
.
- its been a few weeks since i installed the freshy Rear Propeller Shaft that A1 Drive Shaft in Baltimore Maryland crafted to my exact specs. and they did NOT dissapoint !
- this is most likley at least the 20th or more , Land Cruiser and other Random TOYOTA 4wd ANYTHING propeller shafts they have done for me since age 16 in 1990 circa. The owner Will and i are thesame age , and i remember my dad driving me there as a teenager and young adult when my 12/78 FJ40LV-KCJA usa spec. needed any love or attn. in this topic in general .
i have also had a few various PTO front and even a cobbled together REAR SOR parts sourced Propeller shaft work done there as well in the past too ,
bringing your own parts you like or choose into the equasion in through the front door at drop off day , is also NO PROBLEM in any way .....fyi
- summery :
- GHOST is back on the Shop Road-Runner Roads around town for the time being , and NOT being in H4 with the AISIN / ASCO Dials in 4x4 24/7 as my ONLY means of local ONLY propulsion is a huge relief , ill just say that .....
- it truly feels i went from MANUAL Steering to OEM TOYOTA Factory POWER STEERING overnight , that is the best comparison i can honestly and accuratly give to describe just thias and that ...
- i DID do a TECH video REELS shorts as always here to document for future generations and folks right here right now today or tommorow as well too ......
- i will post them below later tonight ......fyi
- but for the mean time here is how i felt this past friday night after Road-Runner'ing out for din din carry out GHOST style .....
.
this spur of the TEq-Moment shoot from the hip , done in 1 single take 1 take sums up my above in this thread post , bottom line .
