Marks adaptors
Does anyone else have issues with the Marks Adpator from a T700 to hilux transfercases coming loose at the 4 mounting bolts on the rear of the Box.... mine continueally comes loose and now one bolt hole is stripped... Peice of shit...
Im making a solid brace from the T700 Gbox mount back to the front transfercase mount to try to stop it seperating again....
Has anyone made these braces before do they work or what... Iv seen a few done in the states..

Re: Marks adaptors
Mate is have the Same issue as you Matt with T700 to Hilux in 2 car's. Hilux and Bundera. He was saying something about Drilling out the thread and running a bolt instead of the studs. I'll ask him and get back too you.
Mate had MASSIVE Issues with the Marks from T700 to GQ. Seperated the 2 all the time, never sealed, dropped fluid, stripped a few stud's.

Re: Marks adaptors
You will find that if the kit had been ordered for comp. use the brackets you are talking about would have been included. Mark did that for their Bundera that was comped.macarthur 4x4 wrote:Does anyone else have issues with the Marks Adpator from a T700 to hilux transfercases coming loose at the 4 mounting bolts on the rear of the Box.... mine continueally comes loose and now one bolt hole is stripped...

Its not just a problem with Marks addapters. Allmost all brands suffer the same issues when addapting anything to the Turbo boxes. The pic above is a good fix and worth the effort.

Mate with the Adaptors problem's wanted me too add "Ring Marks, Ask them. They'll tell you that there's has never come undone and it's the frist they've heard of it. IF something is wrong it's been installed wrong"

Re: Marks adaptors
I have a T700 with a 60 series transfer case. I rebuilt the auto & transfer case last year & it was the first time a spanner had touched them since the car was built 7 or 8 years ago & they were still nice & tight. I will get under it now just to check now though.
it's never a problem until it can't be fixed, even then it' only a minor set back
Re: Marks adaptors
Made a brace like the pictures above last night hopefully this will fix the issue.... ... if it doesnt...mmmmm maybe just alloy weld the lot together...lol

Re: Marks adaptors
alloy welding means you can never get it apart again tho.... cable ties would be way more practical make sure they are heavy duty ones tho
Re: Marks adaptors
That part of the box if welded you can still remove all parts no problem but I'm hoping it will never come to thatRyan wrote:alloy welding means you can never get it apart again tho.... cable ties would be way more practical make sure they are heavy duty ones tho
