Went wheeling up north along the beach near double island point for a few days, nothing too hardcore mostly just sand, there was a lot of rough corrugated parts though. anyways coming home noticed the front passenger wheel was leaning way over at the top. knowing nothing about solid axles or the ...

seems to be commmon enough, should be heaps of info around the place

sorry i cant comment more than that

ok will keep it in mind, f i have no luck will let yuu know

^ huh?

yeah ive tried the coupling both ways.
on my original box it is the same tooth count as the transfer (the coupling is the same at both ends)

I really appreciate your help/advice on this!!

Thats what i thought when i bought it, they both look exactly the same, only difference i could pick was (and the guy i bought it off told me this) that i would have to swap the extension housing, how ever the output shaft from my gearbox has 21 teeth the output shaft on the new box has 26 teeth ...

ok, so how do i mate up the two splines? yes, you are right in that the extension housings are different and wont mate up to my transfer. but thats not the problem, the problem is the splines have a different amount of teeth on them to my coupling (im guessing the coupling is the part that slips ...

anyone?

both the splines are on the outside, (I think) sorry for the dogdy photos, hope they answer your question, THis is the new box, looks exactly the same as the old one, other than the spline coming out the back. not sure what its out of or what year?? http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/zero4x4 ...

car is a 1990 hilux 2.8 3L motor with a g52 box apparently, ok so i picked up a second hand gearbox, as i stripeed the teeth of one of the gears in mine, looking at the back of both of the gearboxes they look identical, but i ran into a bit of a problem getting then together, excuse my description ...

Thanks A1
can i use the top shift from my current 5sp? is the W56 a 5 or a 4sp?

im interested in anything atm how much are you looking for it pm if you want.

thanks again

thanks, had a look on the firewall, there are a few numbers G52 is there along with G582 and a Fxxx number.
Is there a number stamped on the actual box at all?

when you say all the same, from when till when. Petrol/diesel? 4cyl/v6? etc? obviously 2wd will be differant to 4wd

Thanks again.

so ive smashed most of the teeth of the gear on the input shaft into the gearbox.. not sure what other damage is done (if any) because i havent pulled the box apart yet, but im looking at a second hand replacement box, probably cos i figure it will be cheaper than a rebuild (cost?) ? and i wanna get ...

ok thanks where do i get one of them?
from toyota?

1990 ln106 turbo diesel if it matters... about to pull the gear box out... and probably apart :? anyway just wondering if there a good manual for technical repairs etc having a bit of trouble finding one is all. and which author you prefer (if there is multiple) Also where is best to purchase ...

ah good idea, cheers will chase some up tomorrow

90 lux 2.8 turbo, the 4 nuts that hold the turbo to manifold keep coming loose i lost 3 off them last time it happened, about 3 weeks ago, and they were loose again today. wondering why it might be happening, i dont have a flex pipe in the exhaust but it just runs down off the turbo and straight ...

^^yeah id love to know what speed it was doing on impact.

see the date on the door 09/06/92

thanks, shouldn't be too hard then

is it acceptable to wire in a trailer plug from the wires at the tail lights or are trailer plugs supposed to be on a septate circuit?

good idea hanko, i had only checked the positives to another earth, just checked them then, and they all work off the earth wire at the back of the switch too.

got the horn working ended up just rewiring it.. with a new fuse as for the hazards, the blinkers work when the hazards are are off but as soon as i push the button for them the blinkers go off, i have power to the back of the hazard switch, and when the blinkers are on, the wires flash in time with ...

yeah thanks mate, its got 3" springs 2" body with shackles on 33s

ill keep hunting around, just hard driving it around with no plates lol got pulled over yesterday and the cop was more interested in the ute than worrying about anything else

lol about 5 places today and the same yesterday wouldn't even look at it, didn't get anywhere near checking the horn or reverse lights. no standard anything, ive only just bought it, as is, and im finding more and more surprises all over the place. i have got the reverse lights working, must have ...

thanks for that ill go out and have anther check now, there is power at both sides of the horn/hazard fuse in the engine bay

why is it so hard to get a roadworthy on a lifted 4b

also horn and hazards are a no go, fuse is fine though

related?

Just bought the car and no reverse lights, im thinking maybe its the reverse light switch any one know where it is on these? theres a few wires coming out of the box but dont really want to go playing around with them. anything esle it could be, i tried tracing the wires back, and they seemed to run ...

so what happens when you want to turn the spotties on when your driving? will this power up the glow plugs again? not sure if this is a problem though
