« on: Dec 18, 2003, 05:13:05 PM »
Hi Guys
I was wondering if there is a special adaptor for my truk

I have a auto transmission coupled to a turbo diesel and it has the chain driven transfer case.

I want more crawl range as onroad is good but the auto on steep hills i need too give her too much right boot can you guys help thanks .

The 343F auto is the same as our FJ80 Landcruiser. I have not finished that adapter yet. I have been busy with my rear disconnect for the gear driven t-case. Watch my web page for updates----

yes he in fact is "the" marlin, so basically if he says it it is gospel.
the page that you need to watch is this one. when you first type in www.marlincrawler.com look at the bottom of the page that is where the new updates are.
good luck with the build.

Hey White Trash, thanks for the kind words. :beerchug:
 This makes me recall back in 98' or so, when my 80' truck was featured in the latest magazines, I was parked in line waiting to go through the little sluice on the Rubicon, when a lady approched me and asked if I was the MARLIN of Marlin Crawler. I proudly told her yes, and this was, in fact, the truck in the mags. She then asked if she could take a picture of my truck. So I opened the drivers door and stood behind it so my 10" sticker would also be in the picture. To my surprise, she asked me to get out of the way and close the door, so she could get a shot of only my truck. :moon:
And thanks for the held on the tech support.  Marlin
