MARYLAND TACOMAS

If the u joints went up that quick after installing a lift and they just replaced the joints then after a couple hundred miles your drive shaft will start to get play in it again I would check it every couple hundred miles at 1st and grease every 3k

 

That's what I'm afraid of, but I'm going to order the carrier barring drop kit and hopefully that will resolve it. Thanks for the advice, will be keeping a close eye on it, dont want anymore problems haha

 

What up guys any of y'all know where I can get a CMC done I know I asked earlier but never got any info.

 

anybody down to help me put my lift kit on? i just got an ome 3 inch lift kit and would like some assistance/extra set of hands. plus i dont really know what im doing(first truck) but i am used to being under a car. any takers??? ill supply the.

 

All of you need to go to this link and take the survey. http://survey.rrcresearch.com/s3/Maryland

Let them know you're livid about their complete inability to properly manage off-road vehicle use. Rather then completely shutting down the offroad vehicle trails in Maryland (which they did back in 2009) they should have put more of an effort into striking a balance between the sustainable forest bullshit and recreational use of the land by OHV.

Now, Off-roaders have no place to go in MD.

 

Ill do this as soon as I get off work there two places near me they shut down green ridge and popular lick trail I did alot of camping up in popular lick since no every idiot can get across the river it was nice back in there.

 

What part of MD are you in?

 

anne arundel county. but i am willing to drive a reasonable distance.

 

I'm in dunkirk, when did you plan on install

 

Well are you free the weekend of the 8th?

 

As of right now yes

 

hey guys i have a stock 2005 grill up for grabs, pm if interested want to sell it soon!

 

Done. Seems like it all is going to come down to where the DNR wants to put the money. I will keep my fingers crossed.

 

I would also be in to help, more for the learning experience, but I am also ok with a wrench.

 

I ended up doing this at work I have heard of a possible new lease atv trail up my way but nothing as far as 4x4's

 

maybe we could cruise down together man.

 

What's up fellas? Maybe y'all can help me out do any of y'all get a thunk right after you but the trans in drive? Pretty much I select drive move maybe 3ft fwd then I get a thunk idk if it does it in reverse gotta check but I'm just wondering because I'm about to install my lift here in a week and wanted to get all the noises and any vibes fixed before I find new ones and blame em on the lift lol. Truck is a 2010 tacoma stock 4x4 v6 auto dbl cab short bed

 

I would start by looking under the truck to make sure the drive shaft is okay!
Is there perhaps a unknown matter stuck in there?
Perhaps the yoke is damaged. Good luck..

 

Check out your rear

 

Checked under the truck, the drive shaft is solid no play, the u joints on the drive shaft seem to be fine aswell also there pretty clean no mud or rocks or anything like that. The carrier baearing does have some up and downside to side movement to it but I wanna say there's some type of rubber gasket or dampner and its ment to do that by the looks of it. The movement on the drive shaft is probably just 1/8 of an inch if that. I get no vibes while driving either. the clunk I'm describing is almost like something is shifting from neutral to drive its kinda wierd I also wanna say it doesn't do it in 4hi or low. It's my first 4x4 so im lacking some knowlege on transfer cases and all that. is there somthing that has to catchup for the lack of a better term when you shift outta park or reverse and into drive? and its not really 3 feet till it clunks its more like 1ft or one rotation of the tire. Im probably gonna check the front part of the drive train tomorrow since all the norm 2wheel drive stuff looks good.I've heard it before just never bothered looking for it till now. Maybe I'm just over analyzing the sounds the truck is making.
