Transfer Case/Drive Line / What have I got? MC09 and 3.4-4CX
« Last post by thezentree on Jul 23, 2024, 05:02:30 PM »Hey all,
I bought a pretty built and very, very clapped out 1st gen Tacoma. It's a 3RZ, 5 speed, 3 linked with a D44 and has some kind of MC dual case setup. The adapter between the trans and first case has "3.4-4CX" engraved on it, and the rear adapter between the front and rear case has "MC09" engraved in it.
From what I can tell, this is an older Tacobox. Is that right? Is there documentation available for this thing? It leaks like crazy and I'd like to try to seal it better at some point.
Thanks in advance!

Transfer Case/Drive Line / Duals vs atlas ?
« Last post by Mike_amthor on Jul 19, 2024, 10:42:12 AM »How many guys are putting v8 a in front of there duals ? Recently blew my head gaskets (again) in my 3.0. And now I’m swapping the motor to a 1uz v8 with a turbo. I’m keeping the r150 trans should be fine. But I have duals with marlins HD gear set 2.3/4.7. I’m nervous about these holding up to the power. I don’t drive crazy by any means and they’ve held up for years with 1 tons and 40s. I’ve seen people pop the input shafts and output shafts with v8s, curious what the breaking point is. Obvi torque, wheel hop ext it would break. So I was looking into an atlas but there is no adaptor for the atlas to the early model r150s. There’s adaptors for the tacoma 150s, curious what the actual difference is in the tail housing of the trans. And has anyone put an atlas on there early model r150s? 93 Toyota pick up.

Toyota Tacoma/4Runner/T100/Tundra/FJ Cruiser 1995+ / Re: 98 SASed TOYOTA 4RUNNER.
« Last post by busmup808 on Jul 18, 2024, 10:58:59 AM »That red mud is slick like ice there.Yes it is. Well I finished the wiring correctly like factory and I started it for the 1st time in 3 weeks. I still have to finish the exhaust and install the 2 shafts to make the truck drivable. It was loud as flopp when I started it(because it’s uncapped at the moment), all the neighbors came out to look what the hell was that load noise coming from
. This is from the FSM just to start the truck
This is how to convert your automatic wires to factory spec on a manual conversion using factory wires and plugs.
