Well i just had my first run out with my 4runner since i finished all the work (5 inch marlin kit front and reat, IFS box, cross over steering, 5.29's, detroit locker's f/r, marlin's dual t-case adapter with the 10 degree clock, IFS rear axle, front range t-case mount for rotated t-case and skid, 4x innovations front winch bumper and lots of spray paint). I will get some pic's for ya'all later.
So, here is my question. I was having trouble at times shifting the rear case from 4wd back into 2wd. I felt that the t-case was getting warm to the touch ( i filled up the 2 cases with a total of 3 qts of gear oil) so i know there was enough oil in there. It was always fine going from high to low, but would be fickle about the 4 to 2. i never had a problem shifting from 2wd to 4wd. Now when i am messing with it in the driveway, i can not get the problem to happen again, so i am wondering if it had something to do with heating up (has anyone else felt their t-case to see if they got warm after a good trail run?
Thanks for the help,
Cheers,
Jay
Oh, and the 4runner went everywhere! She out wheeled my old zuki hands down, and i know that b/c i was running with the guy who bought it from me, and he didnt make it up all the stuff that i did! I love my yota! (oh yea, and she had to pull out a hummer, true it was an h3, but she pulled it out (pics to come)
