Fuck again?

I'll take it as is

 

Again.

 

Why do you think it keeps blowing through seals?

I know you wheel it, but I wouldn't expect for that to happen again already.

Hell, I would've expected another cv axle mishap where it breaks in the diff tube again.

 

Not sure. I've only wheeled it 2x in the last year too. I drive it to the grocery store so I'm not putting a bunch of 1 mi trips on the diesel.

Im guessing the breather is clogged, the housing is bent, or most likely i fucked up the inner seal installing it. Have to pull the third to do the inner seal so it will sit til I get around to just swapping axles

 

Hopefully it's something easier that fixes the issue.

I'm still a good long ways before I get another rig, yet I keep looking at them on FB marketplace and craigslist.

 

After landcruiser shock amount of travel the shock stem ended up bent and the body ended up dented

 

Interesting.

I never liked the way the freaking rear shock mounts up on top.

I plan on going outboard with some 12" shocks.

 

Don't you want them further in for more triangulation?

It's a pita for them rust folk for sure though

 

Even the custom 4 link guys run them outboard.

If I had the know-how and all that, this is what I'd want -

Yeah, rear window needs some resealing and tlc, front seal needs resealed as well. Other than that just super dirty.

 

@eimkeith

How far are you from developing something like this?

I recall your site, as well as threads on 4Runner.org where you talked about modeling a setup like this.

 

@xtremewlr runs their hinge kit for the swing out.

It's beefy AF and I'm pretty sure it's the same one my rear bumper uses.

 

You'll have to at some point once you decide on 40s n tons

 

Cutting the bed is stupid easy and you clean up the cut with this stuff.

If you can weld or want to learn, Coastal is the answer. I'd still recommend the 4xInnovations hinge tho, even on the Coastal bumper.

 

Planning my next Ozarks adventure to the Ponca Wilderness for the waterfall stops. Local Toyota Club guy makes these videos.

Atherton is even worse. Right in the middle of all the big tech money Facebook Apple Google Tesla

 

Sounds like bad contacts to me if its a small click, if it's a large one it's a bad starter motor
