That's because he drives a toyota.

 

I just take my tow strap, winch control and a lunch. It helps to be able to hold all the broken berfields I find on the trail. LOL

[tdaaj]

i hear this word all the time "berfields" but don't have a clue what it is.

It takes the place of the u-joint part of the front axle shaft. Thsi is how they usually break.

They where used in the Toyota trucks and Cruisers. Really the only weak link. Other than that thier unstoppable offroad rigs.

The next weak link on the Landcruiser is the rear pinion shaft.

cool it spanky! as soon as my new axles are done you wont be finding a single birf' from me layin around...

 

mmmchromolly and 6gun knuckles... front AND rear.. ;-)

 

BTW i have an extra knuckle rebuild kit for BOTH sides that i need to sell fast, if anyone with a yota (redeye) needs this ill work you a great deal on it!

I paid $140 for it a few days ago from TC's offroad, package is unopened. I just need to get my money back so i'll let it go to anyone on the forum or their friends i dont care for $100 and just cut my loss... if someone is willing to toss me a little extra that would be great but i really need the money so i can get my new tires asap! :(

Damn it! That's pretty short notice for me.

 

5Ndime, What's up with the rig?

Need a spare engine, tranny, tranfer???? Have all three from an '87 Comanche.

 

Late reply I know but I have been working like a madman lately on my cherokee. I have a newer motor in it from a wrecked wrangler. Runs good now. Still having intermittent problems with the 4wheel drive shifting into gear. heres a pic as she sits today. Thanks for the offer though!

[620mike]

:(Damn reading all this stuff about toyota axels braking and shit makes me worried that when i get my truck back on the road its just going to brake again..... maybe my buddy wasnt joking when hew said he spends more time working on his truck then wheeling it.

Your buddy wasn't joking ;)

 

Good thing that's 1/2 the fun :D

[620mike]

ya i took it out one time before and it wheeled good but then the front springs broke in and my shackels were laying on the frame.. so i just set up the shackels in stock postion in the frame and that didnbt work and i layed the truck on its side so this is ther third try.... got a couple more things to do and then its back on the road

Doesn't want to engage???:D Look at the vacume can on the pass fender. those are shit! They make a deal that replaces those that is a direct shift for the frontend. No more vacume, just mechanical. I believe it's called a posi-lock or something like that.

[tdaaj]
