Made a center console thingamajig to clean up my shifter boots. And hopefully keep all the hot dusty air from flyin in my face on the trail.

Bottom side. 1/2'' foam gasket around the edge. And the boots are siliconed to the sheet metal.

Top Side, painted it with Rust-Oleum Hammered Metalic Grey

Installed, I only had a few self tapping screws but Im gonna try and find some cool hardware at Winks tomorrow Looks shiny now but I doubt it will for long.

sick man i like it.

So! What it measure?

Early · « **Reply #575 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 01:32:54 AM »

more looked at the way things move. I don't know that we actually measured the rubber

swapped89 · « **Reply #576 on:** Aug 07, 2010, 06:37:24 PM »

Ya I wasn't measuring flex I was just checkin my bumpstops and shock compression/extension. I need to raise my front shock mounts about 2" cause when it flexs that hard, the bumpstops compress and the shocks bottom out.

So I got one of those bad vibes that is buggin me pretty good now.

Last wheelin trip I felt I did alot of torque'n on the drivetrain. In ultimate low. If i was stuck in a spot I couldnt climb I would push the clutch in to let the torque load off of the drivetrain. When I push'd the clutch in I could hear what sounded like the gears in my t-cases un-winding super fast?

So now when i take off in 1st 2nd and the begining of 3rd. It sounds like my rear output bearing is toast. It humms or growls like an un-happy bearing would. But there is no play in the rear output flange, except the normal rotational play. Im going to remove my rear d-line tonight and drive around see if the noise goes away. But I checked the cv and rear u-joint and they have no play.

Do i have to completely tear apart my rear case to replace the rear output bearing or can i get the job done just by removeing the rear t-case cover/housing? :-/

Yes I searched. pirate, YT, 4crawler, Marlin etc, etc..

swapped89 · « **Reply #578 on:** Aug 09, 2010, 03:47:06 PM »

well i pulled my rear DL went for a spin around the block and im pretty sure Im still hearin the same noise In the rear of the t-case that i was hearing before. Kinda hard to tell because I got a bad front u-joint. But now Im almost positive its the rear out put bearing.

i got a spare u-joint for the front so Im probably gonna change it right now. Then dig through my t-case parts bin for another rear output/bearing.

swapped89 · « **Reply #579 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 08:56:45 PM »

Got my driveline back from drivelne tech today. I had him check the u-joint and cv out. He said the ball in the middle of the cv was loose so he took the cv apart and tightened up the ball. Gonna give it a go tomorrow and hope that solves my problem. If not I will be pullin the cases apart.

91 ex-cab · « **Reply #580 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 09:26:05 PM »

Hope that solved the problem for you

good luck.

toyotanner · « **Reply #581 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 10:18:08 PM »

hopefully you can get it done before the weekend

swapped89 · « **Reply #582 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 10:26:55 PM »

Ya me too.

if not I Have a spare rear output bearing I can throw in there.

toyotanner · « **Reply #583 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 10:29:35 PM »

are you flat bellied?

swapped89 · « **Reply #584 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 10:31:03 PM »

Na I wish. It's just a tg dual crossmember

toyotanner · « **Reply #585 on:** Aug 10, 2010, 10:33:42 PM »

nevermind i see you have a stock tranny tunnel... i was gonna say when you go flat belly if you dont raise your motor you get a loud gear/bearing noise at higher speeds

ahh I gotcha. Thanks for lookin out. My vibration is only in 1st, 2nd and begining of 3rd. At high speeds it goes away. So I'm thinkin there is something that doesn't like the torque of the lower gears.

Early · « **Reply #588 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 11:51:53 AM »

did that other shaft help out? got some extra output parts as well if you need......

you going to the woods this weekend? (getting my truck box together today)

swapped89 · « **Reply #589 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 01:46:57 PM »

Ya I'm planning on goin this weekend. I'd go Friday night but were havin a party in the woods to celebrate the life of my buddies brother. $Beer Chug\'n$ for Jared R.I.P. Big Dog.

swapped89 · « **Reply #590 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 05:18:19 PM »

The newel rebuilt drive lne did not fix the vibrating. Soo tonight Im gonna pull the rear tcase cover and replace the rear output bearing. Even though there is no slop on the dl flange. F that don't fix it then it's definatley somethng deeper inside the t-cases.

Early · « **Reply #591 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 05:22:41 PM »

that sucks dude, hopefully its the output bering. have you looked at your case oil yet? have you checked their levels? let me know if you need parts or help bud

swapped89 · « **Reply #592 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 09:13:27 PM »

Ya I hope it's the output bearing. I didn't get around to it tonight but I'm gonna start first thng in the mornin.
The t-cases were actually about .5-.75 quRts low when I checked it. Everything else is good.

I was also thinkin may e it's the front input bearing. Cause if the drivetrains is un-winding like I think it is after I push the clutch in, in the rocks. The input bearing must be flyin in reverse. If that's the case Ima be pissed

mattlosch · « **Reply #593 on:** Aug 11, 2010, 09:35:35 PM »

Mhmmm... well hopefully u make it Saturday buddy I wanna wheel with u
