MARYLAND TACOMAS

I just change the rear differential fluid not even 150 miles to go I'm sure it's fine. Looked and feels healty

 

Doesn't matter now I have to get a knuckle I don't see alternative

 

You can't drill out the old bolt and tap it?

 

Well at this point I'm so fed up I'm not gonna do anything for a while while preparing to take knuckle off could not free the abs sensor after being in its hole for 18 years so it snapped at the mounting point ,the ball joint press kit I rented must have been for a Freightliner cause it was to big to use so I have to get a different kit to remover upper ball joint from control arm

 

Brian, i'm sorry you're having more trouble than I am

 

You don't need a puller

Different years those are bolt in mine are pressed in the Uca

 

Thanks I definitely wasn't expecting a cross threaded bolt in my lbj which at this point has kicked my ass .More than likely I'll mess with it tomorrow when I return the press kit for a smaller one..the broken abs doesn't bother me the damn sensor isn't going anywhere if it works still I will JB Weld the rest back together

 

Saw a quicksand 3rd gen with a bed rack and rtt heading north of rt4 in lusby earlier today. Anyone one here?

Also got my authentic Tacomaworld sticker in the mail yesterday!

 

I didn't expect to spend $280(after labor) on my drive shaft for it all to fail and end up spending another $270 (before labor)

Moral of the story. Buy a fucking driveshaft when your carrier bearing goes out.

 

Yeah I've already dropped 500 or so on parts and tools for the axle and lbj's tie rods if I have to get another knuckle don't what I end up spending and to top it off I'm not gonna make the Flagpole trip next weekend

 

I won't make it nor will i make it down to Mob's to pick up a package.

Shit is getting expensive quickly.

 

I'll send a trailer to pick it up, no worries lol it's a great looking truck, she's old, she just needs a little love.

 

I'm almost at the point I could beat the fucking windows out of mine and light it on fire, then you could have it.

 

I completely understand and feel your pain

 

<3

 

Aww another bromance!

 

Shhh having a moment

 

..... And I'm jealous that I asked before you and I'm still waiting!

 

I asked 8 months ago and still don't have a sticker. I gave up waiting.
