There's a thread for regions, I believe.

 

Yes when installing new shoes or drums and or adjusting the brake shoes, you adjust them out to have a slight drag while turning the drum by hand... you just want them closed mouth kissing, not making out... lol

Yes I have seen them break, but very rare, more to do with people NOT coming to a complete stop before throwing up into park and or people on a steep hill putting in park, then side stepping the brake pedal (exaggerated) and let the vehicle roll until the pawl engages instead of applying the e-brake before letting off the brakes... They are pretty robust... But they do have their limits, that is why med and heavy trucks/buses/motor homes (or used to anyway) use a park brake on the output housing of the transmission, no internal parking pawl... Some of the older motor homes would get stuck on a hill and not come out of park due to the pressure from the weight of the vehicle when the park brake was not used, they would have to be pulled up hill just enough to release that pressure...

 

Yes and the threads as well

 

Loaded up some plants

 

thats a first...

 

Blacked out the reflectors on my Alpharexs with some LaminX films, looks awesome from 10 feet away haha

 

I agreed.

 

Exactly, yes he is the internet order shipper, haha, when he is out of office, all the guys in parts refer to him for any questions on his return to office. He did the same with me on the Filter Housing, he called me to confirm part number and fitment to the VIN I entered into the online order form. I thought that was very cool.

Where did you have your order shipped to?

 

NOT ME. But...

I had a 90 or 91 Isuzu A/T pick up, 2 seater, with an access behind the seats. Driving with, now an ex-wife, we are on a 25 mph surface street oh I say about 4 houses out of our driveway. She decides to get comfortable and does some sort of stretching excercise in the passenger seat, well part of this exercise included hard shifting directly from D to P. The rear wheels locked up solid and we skidded and bounced our way to a dead stop within I say about 15 feet max. After a short conversation, I restarted the truck and we proceeded to our destination in the typical D. I never had another issue with that transmission.

 

Anyone ever done a transmission flush through the cooler hoses? I did a few weeks ago. I have the ac60f transmission.

 

I could never get around leaving a dirty filter in the transmission after all that work to "flush" the fluid.

Dropping a pan is not that hard. My Isuzu Trooper had TWO pans and two filters (4L30e trans)

 

Yeah, I'll do that next time.

 

Did oil change and put in the Fumoto valve. Installed roof rack and 40” light bar. And changed lower control arms and added moog greasable lower control arm bolts .

 

That is pretty much how transmission flush machines do it...

 

Bought a beat up skid plate off of OfferUp and put some life back into it. I’ll install it tomorrow.

 

Got some Tuff Skinz for the back door panels. If you didn't own a Taco, you would never know it wasn't the real door panel. They're perfect!


Also took her out to get dirty right after. Barstow

 

I checked them out once a couple months ago, but now the website isn't showing them at all...

Yeah they look good!!... Do they interfere with the windows going up any??

 

Woh that's weird, I can't find them anywhere now. Guess I got the last ones. But no, the windows are fine and I liek that they come with a flip cover so the dogs cant accidentally hit the window down button.

 

Looks new. Good find.

 

New tires and then it went home for a bath ...
