2.8 Turbo Viscous Fan Repair
Posted: Mon Aug 08, 2011 10:37 am
Hey guys,
After some info from those of you who've repaired the viscous couplings on your rockys...
Mine's spinning totally free now, and failed me at the bottom of a hill yesterday. I locked it up with tiewire to get me home, but this won't last forever...
I've spoken to Toyota about some fluid for the hub, and they can supply, and have it in stock - no worries. I've yet to pull the hub and fan off - what can I expect? Will there be a plug? Will I have to split the housings? is there a seal that can be replaced? Will I need to drill and tap a hole?
