When i go faster the clacking speeds up as well. Any idea what it is or if there is something i can do to find out? I've got some time off from work this next week and I'd like to fix the problem before the snow starts to fall.

1 Mystery ONE.. I counted my drive line and came up with 4.8 revolutions.. I do not see a 4.88 ever being used in 79-83. Am I to assume some one stuck in a 4.88??? I am turning 3500 rpm at 60 with 30 inch tires. Sound right????

2 Mystery TWO .. Does anyone know of anyone who sells toyota 3rd members with 4.88's ???

3 Mystery THREE Is it possible to get a clutch type posi traction for this rig??

thanks

I posted the add for my yota not to far back...

http://yotatech.com/f108/1981-toyota...-clean-180818/

I decided a 2nd time not to be retarded and sell it. ( I won't taunt u guys anymore, sorries about the first 2 times xD) Even though it would be nice to get 3k for it... if it's still worth that much. Since I am keeping it, I would really like to work on it and turn it into something sweeet. But for now, it's running to rich and I cannot figure out what the air/fuel mixture screw needs to be set too... I have looked all over the internet, and as far as I am concerned, their is a difference in the carb settings from an 81 and an 82. I tried the 82 carb settings but it still burns way to rich... I can't seem to figure out how to adjust it correctly... Any help would be greatly appreciated. or even explaining how to adjust it correctly, don't even have to know how many turns out etc... just the correct process. I am considering buying a webber 36/38 carb for it after Christmas... but $400 is a lot to fork out for a broke college kid.

I was... So I was completely re-doing the interior of my 83 4x4 shortbed and the original plans were to order the new carpet from ebay for $120-$150. I was getting estimates for the paint job, and one of the painters told me that I should keep the original carpet if it's in good shape and just have it re-dyed (black). Ok, not a bad idea. He didn't tell me how I could go about doing this but after thinking about it for a little, I figured I could dye it with the same stuff people dye their faded clothes with, they sell it everywhere. That was the plan, keep the carpet since it was in great shape (only 107K original miles on truck) and it was just faded really bad especially close to the console. I was at Pep Boys last week looking for spray paint to re paint some of the exterior trim which was not done when I got the truck painted. I happened to find some spray paint made by Duplicolor that is specifically for vinyl, fabric and carpet. I said what the hell I'll give it a try. I stripped the entire interior of the truck, washed the carpet with my garden hose, let it dry, then went at it with the spray can. Behold....my $7 new carpet!!!!

« on: Yesterday at 04:53:01 PM »
Quote Modify Remove The previous owner put in a new engine (22r) and a new clutch and pressure plate. The tranny is original l-43. When I let out the clutch to quickly I get a clunk but it does not feel like the transmission is hitting the floor or anything like that. It feels like a really bad u joint.. He said it was alway there and he thought it was the tranny mount. When I lay under the truck and watch while someone lets the clutch out quickly I can see no movement of the transmission. The u joints are all tight. If I drive down the road and let up on the throttle ...then back down quickly... it clunks. It feels like a lot of slop somewhere. My tranny guy does not see how it could be in the tranny or t-case. He thinks mabey in the clutch assembly somewhere. We are getting ready to put in and L52 and I want to have every thing I need before hand. I hate to spend 100 bucks on a tranny mount if it is not needed.

Any one got any ideas on where this slop could be hiding.

Thanks is advance again

I have a 1982 4X4 long bed with a badly rusted tank. I see new tanks everywhere for 1984+ toyotas for less than $200, but can't find anything for the older models. I don't care if it's steel or polymer but I have a few stipulations:

- I don't want some crazy bed mounted fuel cell.
- I don't want a $700+ custom AL tank.
- I do not have the facilities available to clean my own tank, and the lowest price I can find to have it done right is $225 + $200 for install and removal.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm worried that the rust will still be active in spots that I can't see and get to, and will come back.
What I had planned to do was sand it the best I can, get some small craft paint brushes and try and get primer and paint under the edges of the holes. Then get some bondo and body filler and smooth it out, then finish it up with primer and paint. Is that the correct order? I'm going to try and do this tomorrow because of the nice weather and I have the day off. Does bondo have to be applied to bare metal, or is a little primer in spots ok? It does look pretty bad, but I'm really more interested in stopping the progression and then make it pretty later on.
Thanks
