Looking for a set of cheap 15" wheels. Toyota bolt pattern (yes - I got an adapter for the trailer...) Only need 3 good ones. Anyone with a set of 4 that had one wheel ruined?

I have the tires already - but ya know I'll take freebies if they're on there.

@tgadd, did you sell yours?

S.CarolinaFZJ80 -

Steering rack - what was happening to warrant a steering rack replacement?

The steering rack was leaking and had torn boots.
I was prompted something was wrong when I made a U-turn the other day and while at the 180 degree point, the steering wheel stayed turned left while the wheels tracked straight. It took a mile or so for the steering wheel to come back to center.
After that, I parked and found the leak. Monitored for a few days and well it's getting a new rack now.

Oh yeah. @jamesurq I have 60 chrome available. Would be good to paint because chrome is rusty and pitted

How much would it cost to rebuild the rear end of that 80? I found a shipper that can pick up.

 

[NCFJ]

Depends on what is wrong with it, a blown R&P is going to cost you more than seals and bearings.

Looks like that one in Boone has lockers tooooooooooo!

Maybe that explains the rear end.

Ballpark-ish.

Not sure but there are locker axles for sale in the main mud "for sale" page right now. They are from a part out in NY.

I know a bunch of you guys end up with old tools -

looking for old bench grinder, table belt sander, or wet wheel sharpening stone/grinder

How much are you looking to spend on a grinder? I've got a craftsman block grinder i restored.

 

[Trollhole]

Damn, I would have gone and bought that, only if, I didn't have to get my steering rack replaced on the 100!

I've had a rash of those go out lately. Usually it's unknown to the owner till the pump starts acting up. The boots fill with fluid.

I was texting him yesterday and told him I could see it today and he quit responding. I even have someone that will get it for me for CHEAP.

Yep, no response to my one text this morning but I can't do anything until late next week......regardless of price, would want to see it before buying!

Same here. I have a guy that will go get it for $85. If anyone needs someone to pick up a vehicle this guy I found is by far the cheapest. Boone is 2 hours from me.

 

[NCFJ]

I can tell you that I would not put a rig of mine in the hands of a guy charging less than $20 an hour for man/truck or man/truck and trailer.

Just my $0.02
