well i drove the truck down to Corning to see my brother (100 miles one way) and started to get a vibration about 2/3s of the way there. pulled over checked all the obvious stuff and everything looked good so i continue down. get there and we go wheelin for a few minutes and go home. SO then i hit I5 comin home and as soon as i get to redding the vibes get REALLY ad so i pull off and get out and theres gear oil sll over the under side of my truck. i dont know yet if the pinion seal and bearings gave it up or if the gears itself are toasted. gotta go pull it today

My local JY. Im pretty good buddies with them.
I cut deals with them all the time, trade parts, etc.

I got my complete 1985 SA, extra matching 4.30 3rd, and rear IFS truck axle for a total of $40 bucks and blown A340H Automatic and ECU.

I got a complete Turbo SR5 4Runner interior for my 85 4Runner when i was building that..... for free.

NorCalToy · « **Reply #224 on:** Nov 24, 2009, 05:46:09 PM »

ok i got the 4.37 third pulled out and all the gears look good. ni chipped or broken teeth at all. i changed the ujoint that was smoked out and started lookin at the third member. the pinion had some play but then i noticed the pinion nut was loose. so i tightened that up and everything feels snug like it should. no side to side play in the pinion or excessive play anywhere. safe to run?

NorCalToy · « **Reply #225 on:** Nov 25, 2009, 10:45:04 PM »

THK Matt · « **Reply #232 on:** Nov 26, 2009, 11:23:53 AM »

Thats just how it ended up

Im gonna probably swap on my

chrome marlin 6" shackles soonish. I ended up having to extend the shock towers so they look like

now. It was barely too short but i extended it an inch and now at full compression iv got like 1/4" shaft showing.

so im gonna shim the bumpstop down for now until i ?Buy ford towers or hoops.
