Wow, 8 years ago this guy got banned from T4R. Just came here to tell you guys i banned this moron from my youtube channel. Not sure why he was harassing my channel but today I had enough. lol

Wheel Finish Help Thanks for all the help and ideas all. I do have a question and i started noticing other photos have similar problems as me. Anyone know how I can get a smoother finish on the aluminum? Notice how my center cap looks awesome and shiny (I spent the least time prepping those...

I just redid my seals since I swapped to a locker axle. Prior though it was running fine not fully seated. There’s nothing that would knock it out so I think this is safe for the folks that had machine shops match the oem positions. I was not going to go back to them to move it :). Good luck...

I put brand new toyota OEM bearings in and noticed there's a little play. It's in and out as you described after it's all bolted up. I had some leaks but it's due to what Timmy the toolman said. The re-designed seal. I corrected this by just not seating the seal all the way. We're talking about...

Yah, they say it's common to have 4.10 for non-locked Auto v6 3rd gens so I can see that. I just didn't see ANYBODY posting they had a 4.30 and most folks assumed they were 4.10 so they didn't bother trying to do a full axle swap since the front's wouldn't match. I'm hoping this thread will help...

I have no clue.... I don't think so as most folks have no clue what their ratios are :). They end up doing the tire spin test (which works too!)

So i found my 906's were side specific. The sticker on the spring itself has an A/B on it. As luck would have it, I put them on in reverse. Fortunately, they are easy to swap. Weridly the 808 are NOT side specific. The stickers do not show the same lettering (A/B). I do have a slight driver...

Just to close this out, I opened the diff and confirmed it was 43 ring teeth to 10 pinion teeth. 4.3 on my auto despite all the bad information out there stating mine would be 4.10 since it was non-locked v6 auto. So a direct axle swap from another runner is possible to keep the front diff ratio...

I left the stickers on the springs due to laziness. I pulled one off and confirmed it was wrong. Also the car wasn't level in back. I was 36" driver and 36 1/4" passenger with half gas. Now I'm 36 1/8" on both sides. My front seems better now too. Only about 3/8" off now which was how the...

well shit.... i didn't pull the whole tag off so i didn't see this! Gosh I hope it did it right because I just wasted 2 hours today swapping from left to right lol....still same lean! Weirdly.... my 880 front springs don't have A/B on them. I just pulled the sticker and found nothing...going to...

Can you post a picture of what this looks like? My 2906 springs were labeled 906X on both and even on the box. It sits near level in the rear. 1/4" higher on passenger side.

Hi guys, I just installed bilstein 5100 and OME springs (880 front/906 rear). Things went OK for the most part. I did some post install measuring and noticed my fronts are about 3/4" off from side to side. The rear is like 1/4" off which isn't too bad. I let it settle for about a week now (did...

Thanks for the reply. It's my 3rd "fun"/"dirty stuff" car so i'm going to drive it until it gives me more problems. On to my next project! Rusty end links!

donuts Well guys, the locker works. It was an open lot....no one was injured :) Huge improvement over open diff lol. Can't wait to make snow donuts. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GiRYy9rvtfs?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

So my noise seems to have calmed down a bit. I can't really hear it anymore while driving unless i'm under the car listening to it. Perhaps it just needed some lube break in time. I did clean her out with break clean prior so maybe she was just a little too dry. Guess I'll drive her til she...
