I ended up with a different colour front drivers fender thanks to a deer. Paint code 4P7 Mystic Gold Metallic was hard to match up.

I peaked under a second GEN for sale today at a Toyota dealership. It had a yucky frame with that black coating peeling off. Funny how dealers never show pictures of the undercarriage.

 

@TjAeCeOpMAmiah guessed this was the problem. Spot on


I think it is the AC compressor clutch face plate. The melted part.

We replaced this and the bearing it sits in. Also the lower idler pulley, as it was making a slight noise.

AC all fixed.

 

Did you have to remove freon to do this job?

 

No.

We simply got the AC compressor clutch face plate off, and the bearing the belt and it ride on. The bearing was toast.

Put new ones on. Ensure it was spaced correctly, as it is magnetically engaged. All Fixed.

We did not touch the AC compressor it self or the AC lines.

 

What was it doing before? my a/c crapped out and i have not looked into it at all yet because i prefer windows down lol

But i kinda sorta want to get it fixed for the the option on long highway runs though

 

Mucho gracias amigo
No sounds outa mine so prob just need to recharge the system

 

Anyone have a line for an AGM 27F battery? I’m due for a replacement and having a hard time finding one. Saskbattery is back ordered for months.

 

Crappy tire. Great warranty, many locations to fufill the warranty.

 

Mine stopped working a few months ago - checked to make sure the clutch and pulleys were moving freely and then got a R1234YF charge kit from Princess Auto - hooked up the gauge and pressure was low - gave it a shot of juice and we've got nice cold air again - It was a little annoying because if Toyota used old fashioned R134 I could have checked pressures and filled it at work for free...

 

Looks like you got a convoy... !

 

Great picture

 

I can't understand why he took a pic of a Ram heading in the opposite direction

Weird closet freaks

 

Noticed OK Expedition finally has their 1/4" Al transmission skid plate back in stock. $339 Cdn and $35 shipping, $423.74 with tax

So I ordered one today, another thing off the list and onto the TBI pile when it arrives.

 

That’s what I thought… He must be from Hamilton or Burlington

 

pretty sure there is a group buy going on if you aren't aware, might be able to save some money on it if they don't fly off the shelves before the group buy closes!

 

Prairie Battery outta Winnipeg. Same Co., Bigger Warehouse, less shipping distance.

 

There is a group buy happening on Facebook. True North Tacoma page is offering 15% off all OK Expedition skids.
