The tailgate storage from Huracan Fabrication came in. $335 to the US from Australia. Fit and finish is spot on. Super happy with it. Even included foam to line the inside with.

Awesome. Your old truck has one now as well! Sarah did it all by her lonesome...and I got to buy a new angle grinder.

Like you, she prefers it over the 470! Sorry. Maybe later... but I just replaced the original radiator at approx 270k.

Plans of swapping in the part time kit Saturday morning was quickly derailed when I pulled the back half of the case.
Inside of the case looked like a Titanic exhibit.
A quick Saturday morning project turned into the weekend, and entire case rebuild. New bearing, seals and gears robbed from a 100 series I had.

Still waiting on a seal and rear output bearing from Toyota. Should be able to reassemble on Wednesday.
Here’s the sneak speak after many hours of scrubbing and time in the parts washer.

No kidding. I have no idea what is on the inside of it. It’s the consistency of burnt motor oil on the inside of a cylinder head and flaked off like carbon build up on a piston.

Could it have been run with a low oil...or no oil? Perhaps the wrong type of oil?

That’s what I’m thinking. The hollow space between the transmission and tcase was filled with oil. The seal was bad and leaking. I’ve kept an eye on it since purchase and keep it topped of. No telling how long it been like this.

Kind of gives it an Aussie sort of look. You need to do something about that from bumper now.
