    Fixing to rebuild the supercharger or try to, call up my local Toyota dealership to find out if they would happen to have a manual or instructions to get the rebuild on the way an the lady told me that Toyota doesn't stock the instructions for the supercharger. So would anyone on here happen to have a link or something to direct me in the right way for this rebuild? Also tips on what to look for while I'm going through it?

    along with the linked thread above, a lot of its on youtube, a few different ones and may not be exact but enough to show you whats needed for rebuilding them

    the big problem I read about was replacing the rear bearings in it, the youtube video I saw showed the procedure on getting them out and putting in new ones.

    most of the "general stuff" isn't covered, just the problem areas so its assumed the rest is pretty self explanatory on taking it apart and putting back together
