Long Travel BS Thread

@SoonToBeOn39s full partout?

 

Happy Father’s Day.

does anyone here have a good thread they used for pulling and reinstalling their front diff? I’ve got the idea on how to do it, I just want something I can reference while I’m doing it. I’ve got a couple obstacles in my way that a normal Tacoma doesn’t have, so while I’m buried trying to work around that stuff I’d like something to reference so I don’t miss something stupid.

and those of you that have done it, is removing the two LBJ adapted bolts out of the spindle enough to let you pop the axles out of the diff? Or did you have to take the axle nut off and the axle out of the hub too?

 

I always pull the axles all the way out. Never tried leaving them in the hub, but that sounds like a nightmare of a time.

Pulling the diff is pretty straightforward, I can do it by myself in about 45 minutes.

 

hopefully you can get your rear mount out without having to lift the engine, with the ls that’s been my only way to get it down. Remove the rear mount entirely than just lower it down with a jack.

 

I’ll just do that then

i mounted the LS above my steering rack and slide rack, so I should have plenty of room to snake it out hopefully

 

You guys were right. I was way over stressing this. 3 hours to pull both for the very first time ever.

new thirds come tomorrow and should be gtg

 

that shop space gives weird creep vibes… Woman With The Dragon Tattoo comes to mind

 

Front end, wheels and tires, rear blown up axle, and stock interior parts

 

What happened?

 

Well I want a race kit so I figured nows the time since my truck will be down for a minute. I'm caging the cab of my truck, throwing a Dana 60 under it and the method 701 silver have my attention

 

I’ve got some KMC IMS 552’s in silver

 

All Pro LT kit. Reused all stock parts to attach to the spindle.

 

Need anything from my for sale list? Lol

 

Do you have a bigger axle ?

 

I have a full floater Camburg axle with all the goodies
35 spline 300m shafts with a ford 9” trutrac

Camburg hubs with dual caliper willwood superlites.

@YotaFAB was planning to snag it from me but he has a plumbing snaffu to deal with unfortunately

 

What's the damage to my bank account?

 

Housing/with shafts/hubs/rotors/4x calipers
5100$

Trutrac ford 9” 3000$

If you buy both right now and get them out of my garage before I move.
I will give you a bigger deal

BUT I am packing my house rn since they decided to raise the rent, so on the 27th most of these parts I’m selling are disappearing to the east coast

So consider me a motivated seller lol

 

What's the wms width?

 

71.5
Perfecto for race kit stuff
