lia toyota in colonie, NY , full disclosure, the dealership that installed the gears botched the job. the truetracs are still good i am sure but the gears may be a little iffy. when i pulled my diff cover there the wear on the ring gear looked ike the pinion was too deep. and it had a whine...

traded it in for the taco, thanks to everyone here for all the help and info over the years. I will probably drop in from time to time but my jeepin days are over for now.

Finished pulling everything i want out of it, trading it in a 2pm today, its almost bittersweet but long overdue that i get rid of it. Confirmed my suspicion that the dealership botched the acle work when i pulled the diff cover on the rear axle. The gear are wearing bad on the heel. Take it...

Made the deal to trade it in for a 2019 tacoma trd off road, taking delivery monday, now who wants some parts?

yea that is what it looks like, the next morning i opened the sunroof and looked around, no water leaking by the seal, i'll punch the drains asa. can that be done from the top by the sun roof or is any interior disassembly required in order to access the tubes for cleaning?

Was parked on an incline yesterday during some rain, front was higher than the rear. Got in and started driving homeand qhile going down a hill i had water pour in through the dome light/sunroof control switch. This is on a 2006 liberty, no roof rust, sunroof has been closed for a while with...

yea, i just replaced the heads on my 2006 3.7l, it wasn't an easy job, but it definitely wasn't as bad as i thought it was going to be. the tips i would give to anyone who is replacing the heads would be: the bolts that hold the exhaust pipe to the manifolds came out most of the way and...

learn from my mistake, stop throwing parts at it right now, do a compression test, if that is good, do a leak down test, (that will show you if you need new heads), if the leak down test is good, test fuel pressure, injectors, etc... if you need any oem injectors or sensors, let me know, as i...

i wouldn't blame the brake fluid for the issue, but a spongy pedal is indicative of air in the system or a leaky seal in the master cylinder. i would try bleeding the brakes again. i had a similar experience when i used my motive power bleeder for the first time, I'm not a fan of it because it...

drove it to work today, just need to re-charge the a/c system, adjust my parking brakes, and get it inspected. runs like a top now.

got almost everything back together, tonight will be devoted to the exhaust, O2 sensors, adding coolant, adjusting the parking brake shoes, reinstalling the battery, and a test drive. then I have to get the state inspection done which was due in October.

sometime between april and july, getting a 2019 GTI.

got the heads and timing chain tensioners done, one of the valve cover bolt holes on the new left side head was stripped so i had to drop $50 on an M6x1 helicoil kit at napa. got the engine back together, just need to re-install the battery tray, alternator, a/c compressor and lines, pcv...

been chiseling away at the heads with my free time, ran into an issue when i had to find a long torx bit to unbolt the tensioner arm for the secondary chain. getting a complete set today and will be pulling and replacing the passenger side head. exhaust bolts broke the tabs so new cats, y...

the latest and worst issue would have to be the heads, when all is said and done i will have about 2,000 into the new heads and all the other parts and tools to replace them (cam tool set from OTC was $300). Until now i would have said it was a good vehicle. But needing serious motor work or...

I'm all done sinking money into upgrading this vehicle. If i had known 2 years ago what i know now, I wouldn't even own it anymore. This time next year i am selling the jeep and getting a 4runner.

ordered exhaust manifold bolts, assembly lube, and the chrysler camshaft tool set from OTC. won't be here in time for the weekend but i have plenty of other stuff to keep me busy.

picked up the new heads, timing chain guides, tensioner arms, head gasket set, and head bolts...now i just need new exhaust manifold bolts, the timing lockout tool, assembly lube, and who knows what else. it's going to be a fun weekend.

looks like you need an intermediate shaft if it is the passenger side, or new cv axle if that was the driver side.
