    he can be right just saying in my experience with mine and that sound i didn't chage out those coupler bearings i changed the oil reader bearings and that green circle thing. and when i put it back on i had one bold loose and it made a crazy sound and i gave it a turn and checked all others some had some give the started it and all was good...

    Yeah....I think they pulled the bearings out of the box to show you the quality. The gray thing on the lower right is the coupler....which is what I feel is making that noise. Either way, One of us are right in what is making the noise. But.....we can both agree you need a rebuild :thumbsup:. You should be ok for a little bit but I'd be gentle on it until you can get it rebuilt......and do it sooner rather than later.

    I'm not too familiar with the 1st gen s/c.....but if it's like the 2nd gen (which I'm sure it is) the bearings are what help the fins spin I believe. When you use the syringe to draw out the used fluid, you'll see what you should replace.

    Just ordered all the parts!

    Is the nose cone fairly easy to replace the bearings ?

    just wanted to chime in and agree with the crowd, it defintitley needs a rebuild. I bought my 04 used with a s/c and it's silent while idling, that loud rattle ain't good. In case you can't do the rebuild yourself, I've seen on here some guys that have had theirs rebuilt by Toyota, just call them first and confirm they can do it locally if you go that route. Last guy I saw on here that did that recently paid. $1600 for a full rebuild, but that was including parts. If you bought them yourself already, I'm sure the labor $$ isn't too bad.

    Yeah I'm gonna do it myself. I've been wanting to do the rebuild anyways. The nose cone looks like it was leaking too

    Yeah I saw the thread. I just didn't understand the re assembly. Do you press both bearings in the snout then the shaft ?
