Sounds right to me, although I haven't done it yet. I'm going to check out a top shift box today for $75.

Here is Marlins install guide, PDF:

Yes. You regear the rear case, which remains the transfercase.

You then get an adapter, and a second transfer case. You remove the transfer part of the transfer case, and use just the gear reduction box in between the tranny and the adapter. The adapter allows you to bolt the crawl box, and the transfer case together. The crawl box bolts to the tranny just as the stock transfer case did.

*****NOTE*****
The above info only applies to those running compatible transmissions: Generally the W56, R151, and I believe, but don't quote me, the R150.

Essentially, if your truck came compatible with early gear drive cases, you are in good shape.

 

can you do anything to your stock suspension to give just a little extra lift on a 1990 4runner.

 

you can crank the t-bars up some or put bj spacers for a lil extra lift man. search for some more info on the 2 for more details

 

hey newbie here are aisin hubs stock?

 

You bet.

 

hi

i have some silly questions :
1- i have a safari snorkel attached on my fjc would u advice me to buy the K&N air filter and would it increase the performance
2- i was wondering the ARB front and rear bumper will its fit my fjc with ome kit (suspension and coils)) the normal stage

3- i have oem rims and 265/70R17 toyo open country will it fit the TRD rims since its 16

 

For your first question, no, I'd recommend only stock filters. K&N and other open element, "lifetime" filters let in significant amounts of dirt.

For your second question, I have no idea what you are asking, as I don't think you even have an actual sentence there.

For your third question, again, its hard to understand, but I think you are asking if you can stick 16's on your truck, since it came with 17's. Yes, you can.

 

Yes, the bumpers will fit with that lift. As stated above, the bumpers and suspension are exclusive, and do not affect one another.

Again, as stated above, you cannot put a 16" rim in a 17" tire. There is no possible way that could work.

I have not tried any dual battery set up. You would probably be better off checking the FJ Cruiser forum on here.

 

Good Advice AxelIke. I was looking into lockers myself and was questionable your thread reinforces my idea(s) of what to do thanks..but one question which truck shud i do it to..the 92 3.0L 5 speed or the 99 3.4L Auto?

Happy Wheeling!

 

just got my new 85 4runner running with its new engine and working out all the kinks, and working on getting the bikini top just wondering from all you 4runner lovers out there if there is anything i should be weary of, small things like 33's not fitting or anything....
Thanks a bunch

 

As long as you're not saggin and have factory backspacing 33's should fit.

 

10 pages of amazing help from some of our resident gurus. Remember folks this is just a guide. And also do read through all of this before you ask a redundant question of "What tires will fit my rig" or "What is a locker" Read this thread, then SEARCH, *then* post up your question I Know AxleIke, TC, 4Crawler and others who have helped here are very busy guys so keep those questions, clear and concise!

is my trucks suspension saggin at all?

 

Yeah you have the classic sag. Stiffer coils would fix that I think! That's a classic 4 runner issue BTW!

 

is having a classic issue a bad or good thing?

 

classic meaning that it happens all the time and considered a common problem or a "classic" case of butt sag. Classic being a synonym for common in this case.

 

ok, common problems are usually easier to fix.... guessing ad a leaf?

 

look into the zuk mod and search for 4runner sag. trust me you'll find more than enough info on this forum to fix you problem. I think a member by the name of chefyota just did the zuk mod and cured his sag in the rear. It's not the only option but a common or "classic" fix For a "classic" problem if you catch my drift. Other options include but not limited to new springs, add a leaf, re-arching your old springs. This all depends on the year make and moidel and if you have coils in the rear or leaf springs. Have fun and get to reading. Yotatech can find many ways for you to spend your hard earned money.

 

Also lysmachia, you said that I have a classic issue 4runner. Explain....
