Holy crap biskets! I thought I have seen it all! Air chisel? Maybe a drimmel tool. I love that style Toy, good luck.

georgiayota · 12-08-2008, 11:12 AM

bump it on up, any ideas on how it get it off?

scooper · 12-08-2008, 12:51 PM

Wow, just... wow. I have never seen that in my life nor would I ever do that unless it was a dire emergency and I needed to do it get home or to safety.

Well, it has to be replaced, im sure the threads are shot thanks to the welded on nut. About the only thing I can think of is grinder/dremmel like he said.

fyreandwater · 12-08-2008, 06:29 PM

An easy way to tell what gears you have is if your speedo works. I had stock gears and when I put on 33's my speedo was off about 10 miles per hour at 60 miles per hour. When I put 4:88's in the speedo is just about on with 33's.

4banginRunner · 12-08-2008, 06:43 PM

my buddy has a junk axle off a 84 or 85, so i will pull a new spindle and junk off of it.

georgiayota · 12-11-2008, 11:29 PM

Alright my new birfields came in the other day, so when you grease them how do you do it? Just pack as much grease as you can in and around it?

georgiayota · 12-12-2008, 10:52 PM

anyone know?

Hasbeen · 12-12-2008, 11:13 PM

Yeah, just get a bunch in the palm of your hand and pack it into the sockets for the balls. Rotate the birfield around and keep packing the grease into it good and deep. Some guys just pack the birfield and leave the knuckle fairly dry so trail service isn't so messy. I myself not only pack the birf, I pump a good amount of grease into the knuckle after assembly aswell.

Hasbeen · 12-12-2008, 11:15 PM

By the way I want to punch the guy that welded your spindle nuts.

scooper · 12-13-2008, 02:23 AM

I fill them both slap full.

Did you get your long and short shafts off of the Birfields already?
Do you know how?
Do you know how to put the new birfields on the old shafts?

If not just ask.

I wish I knew who he was, I know it wasn't the guy who I bought the truck from because he couldn't even get it running

I havn't had time to mess with it because of school and work, but this past week was finals so I will have time to when I'm off next. I sorta know how from what I have read, but I will go ahead and ask:

How do you get your old birfields off and the new ones on?

scooper · 12-13-2008, 09:31 AM

ok, there is a snap ring on the inside of the birfield that clips on the end of axle just like the one inside the hub. It sits int he grooves but is just big enough to stop the axle from being able to be pulled out by hand. The easiest way to do this is to get a length of pipe 2" or 3" , metal. clamp it in a vice or some how manage to hold it steady. Then you hold the lift the birfield with the axle shaft pointed down. place the end of the shaft into the round pipe and slam id down firmly while still holding onto the birfield.

Flek23 · 12-14-2008, 07:18 AM

I took the bolt in the fill hole on top and replaced with a grease fittings so I can just grease everything all the way around with a grease gun. It was a little tricky getting them in because I didn't have everything apart when I did it. Just a thought, made life a little easier IMHO.

Yall are genious, I bought a air chisel and hit it on the welds and they flew off like there was never anything there.

georgiayota · 01-30-2009, 10:35 PM

Time for an update.

Well I have had little time to work on the truck between going to school full time and also working full time. I finally got one side of the front axle put back together, but I have to go to my buddies house to get a spindle off a spare axle to finish the other side. Hopefully in the next month I will have it back driving again so I can show some of my buddies up. Oh one other thing that I found out, brake parts cleaner doesn't feel good when sprayed into your eye.

bpayne88 · 02-03-2009, 06:22 PM

good lookin 1 st gen. i started a build on one, but lost intrest. i still have most of the cab and front clipif you run in to the need for them. if not then the crusher may meet them over the summer.

georgiayota · 02-15-2009, 08:12 PM

another update:

I had today off and got my truck back to the point where it sits back on all four wheels again!!!! I also started it up, first time in a lllloooonnnngggg time. It ran like a champ, I will be hopefully getting it out the garage wednesday on my day off. I can't wait to take it out and start having fun again, it's been about a year since I drove it. I'm going through withdraw.

georgiayota · 02-22-2009, 08:40 PM

another update:

Well I got lucky and ended up with some civic seats today for free. I'm off again wednesday and I'm gonna pull the truck out and get some pictures and what not.

Yeah it's mostly california people on the Marlin forum but there are people from all over the world on that site. Most people I know who are into Toyotas & offroading, and have internet access know about Marlin. He's the man!
