    Power wash it, let it dry, then spray it down. Advise warming up the rattle cans first to help it spray easier.

    After 5 years with the factory battery I replaced it with a Toyota True 60-month battery.

    It was on sale for $79 minus tax

    Finally replaced the blower motor/fan, no more chirping from the heat/AC.

    Wish I swapped them the first time I ordered the part. Took the old one out, ran it, no chirp so I figured it wasn't the fan/motor itself, returned the new one, read it wouldn't chirp when it wasn't installed, finally reordered the fan last week.

    Out wheeling and blew up the rear end. Disconnected drive shaft to limp home in front wheel drive. Third is making grinding noise and am thinking about pulling the diff housing but worried that if done the axles won't be secure.

    Any advice offered gratefully accepted.

    Doing is via relay as another TW member is in a jam and we are trying to figure out if he can safely limp home or if I need to head to the shop and hook up the trailer.

    I would lift the rear turn it. See how it feels. What it sounds like. Broken tooth could bring you to a dead stop. Only safe way is to pull the shaft and the axles.

    We've decided to trailer it. I have to get the trailer and drive to him which is about 3-ish hours. I'd feel like a shit if I talked him into driving it with the third pulled and an axle dropped.
