GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Thanks. Next priority is going to be finding a t/c or rear diff quickly

 

What exactly happened to cause said issue?

 

tried to make it back up a rutted out road. I haven’t been able to get under and check. Only can drive with front 2 wheels

 

If the rear drive shaft is spinning then it's the diff, if not then it's the TC. Right?

 

His truck is a 8” right? I just took gears out of my 3rd gen, but the Pro has a slightly bigger diff if I am not mistaken.

mid they would fit I would say you could have mine that I just removed, but I don’t believe we have the same size diff.

 

Hopefully it's just a broken u joint on the driveshaft... $15 and back on your way. Or the shaft itself then you can go one piece and eliminate the two piece garbage.

 

Got free. We are going to take the D/S out. It is the rear diff. The cover has a hole in it and it is messed up

 

Glad your out. Sucks about the diff. Similar thing happened to us at telleco.
I will ask around to see if anyone of my buddies has some gears from their regear lying around.

 

Doh, if you can get any parts out, that'll help and be careful while driving back, keep speeds slow since the broken pieces can get jammed and lock up the wheels.

 

Sweet! D/s is out. We are headed toward the park now

 

It's a great feeling when help arrives, glad you got out safe and sound!

 

Made it out. Going to limp it home. Need a whole rear end now

 

Annnd my axle just seized up. Calling insurance to tow it home

 

Ahh fack.

If anyone has a trailer for it, I can come tow you back.

Edit... Just saw that was an hour ago..

 

Give me a call

@Built2Ride thanks for the ditch light brackets JB!

 

Sweet looking truck man!

 

Thanks! It's getting there. Fighting the urges to just go full on with 35's like my last rig haha.

 

Quick update,

Having the truck towed home tonight.

Is anyone free tomorrow to help me get the rear diff out? That way I can at least drive the truck a little if needed
