Have you though about running the rear bearings in oil. Check out the MadMatt4wd video on it. You use the terrain tamer cassette seal and leave out the axle seal. Bearings last a lot longer. Could do the same on bullets with the 80 diff.
Hey mate , just after some advice , I’m putting the terrain tamer 5/700 parabolics on and want to know if you had to add / change anything to use the high clearance plates ? Did you need a different length rear shock ? Thanks Craig
Yes Craig, I used a different shock and I had to grind the side of the high clearance plate to make some clearance for pack, and a u bolt that has a lot of tread.... Good choice on the leaves....I love mine
Hi Mate, Is it true that if the G Box isn't put in 4wd before the axles are removed( toyota bearing regrease), the locker dog can fall out and cause you to have no locker? Trying to trouble shoot my 2020 76 locker not engaging. will pull the cover off to check for water in the meantime. cheers
Locker will only engage in 4L, I don't think there is space behind the fork for the dog to fall in, if you take the plate with the switch out you can see if the dog isn't there, but most likely to be water damage to the locker motor mech...
@@MlCKTITS happy to take a look at it for you if you want, if I can’t fix it, costs you nothing. The actuator assembly is $$$ from Toyota. I think the part number is still 41450-60042.
