The Dark Knight Build

98tacoma27 · 09-22-2009, 07:08 AM

Interesting.........your's is different than mine (manual/FSM). Is it specific to the carb?

Dark Knight · 09-22-2009, 07:12 AM

no, it is the 1985 FSM I got it from Marlin Crawler forum. It's got an efi section and a carb section, MT and Auto section, manual hub and auto hub section.....etc....

98tacoma27 · 09-22-2009, 07:13 AM

Ah, mine is the 88 4runner/truck. It has the turbo section also.

Dark Knight · 09-22-2009, 07:14 AM

hmmm turbo, that would be nice to help my 96 horsepower

Abrigger · 09-30-2009, 09:32 AM

Nice tacoma you got there. I am having the same skyjacker lift installed today on my 07 and I cant wait to get her back.

What size tires are you running? With this set-up, can you go bigger than 265/70 17's?

Dark Knight · 10-04-2009, 12:41 PM

thanks, yea I'm running 285/75/16. a 285/70/17 will also work with wheels that are 4.5" backspacing with minimal negative offset.

OldRed is on the jack stands. I'm doing a knuckle rebuild. Found that the knuckle balls

were a little rusted on the outside and need to be sanded/jb welded to fill in pits/sanded again.

I mangled the metal seal ring on the driver side that gos to the inside of the felt seal, but straitened it out as good as i could.... I think it will seal ok

98tacoma27 · 10-14-2009, 08:38 AM

You have been viewing Mikes thread too much.

Dark Knight · 10-14-2009, 08:45 AM

Hopefully everything else will go ok.

I'm also trying to hunt down a hub or set of hubs. one of the hub clutch was missing spline teeth from the last person installing the hubs wrong.. Fucker!!!

Dark Knight · 10-25-2009, 07:07 PM

there is a small clanking noise in the front now after the rebuild. It stops as soon as I put the breaks on??? I had to get two new studs pressed into the hub and have a suspicion that the shop could have bent the rotor a bit. any other ideas??

Hubs are now WARN Premium locking hubs. Still looking for an extra Aisin hub for spare parts.

I got the new slave cylinder on last tuesday and the clutch adjusted properly. All the hydraulics on the clutch are now new.

I have a new gauge cluster coming so I'll be able to see whether the tach problem is the gauge or wiring to the gauge.

drew02a · 10-25-2009, 09:57 PM

Coming right along

SNThorsen · 10-27-2009, 07:30 PM

hey man this might sound like a stupid question but how did you turn on your fog lights without turning on your headlights. i have the 09 model sport and they will only come on when the headlights are on.

Dark Knight · 10-28-2009, 05:04 AM
