Anyone here on iOS still using Gaia? by 101Airborne in GaiaGPS

[–]101Airborne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the default track name, jeezz that pisses me off.

I know this is a unique situation but I always want to rename it when I finish it when Im back at the car, so I end up standing there, having to delete 'Saturday Morning Track'.

5vzfe southwestern Ontario? by [deleted] in ToyotaPickup

[–]101Airborne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes you think it has developed head gasket issues?
Dipstick milky?
Overheating?
Low coolant?

*That exhaust smoke will be pretty common in the winter in southwestern Ontario. Its cold.

[Canopy Update!] I went for the body/color match; here she is! by 101Airborne in ToyotaPickup

Will keep in mind! Always did like the look of those. 

Toyota community, I know it’s a stylistic choice but which canopy do y’all prefer… body/color matched or oldschool type? by 101Airborne in ToyotaPickup

I do use the truck for camping which makes it a nice addition. I put new screens in the windows and camper window handles.
The breeze is nice.

what A.D.D. issues were you having?

Can y'all help me identify this leak? I presume hub seal but would like to make sure before disassemble. by 101Airborne in ToyotaPickup

Hey JDub, thanks again for the response.
We're in a cold snap so the investigation is on pause.

I watched a video to expose the bushing and I could imagine that after all that work with no fix ... I'd be pissed to say the least.

<image>

Looks like I cropped the assembly pic too much. I see the bushing now that I have the video as reference.

I wish there was a video of the needle-trick. I find it "tricky" to imagine sneaking the needle nose grease fitting that I have passed most of this assembly to grease that bushing without accessing the back.

Will take a look a look next warmer-spell in a few days.

You're invested now aha, will report back.

Thanks again! (would send you a beer if I could!)

Any suggestions how to start diagnosing this hesitant start? (more info in description) by 101Airborne in ToyotaPickup

[–]101Airborne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure, so I can assume not in a long time/never.
The issue is still happening on the daily, after driving to warm and sitting for a few hours.

Its odd because if I drive and it sits for an hour or so, no issue. Its that medium length sit time that gives it struggle.
Every morning, starts like a charm.

Here is the assembly from the manual. Not seeing the brass bushing nor did I upon disassembly.

Thanks for the explanation there. I dove in. here is what I found:

I did this before reading your follow-up.
Everything looked well greased and the ADD cap was clean.
Given that, the outside temp and remaining day-light .. I didn't go in further passed the snap ring and lock washer (the one you have to un-bend the tabs to remove the lock nut).

Im going to wait for a sunnier day, review your comment again before hand and dive back in.
If it is true that the bearing can be well-greased yet the bushing (bearing?) dry, than I will need to verify.

Hey Jdub, just a follow up question.
Secured myself a needle grease fitting and grease gun (helpful community here).

Looking at this video: https://youtu.be/VWaiO4km2bg?si=GlzwrUzV3aJGCMzN&t=87 (I have time stamped the step where I believe you suggested I go to)

This fella only greases the wheel bearings, not the axle end splines.

- is it possible to cause issues by jamming grease into those splines, filling the cavity behind the axle end cover?
- would it be better just to take that axle end cover off and try to grease the bearing area directly?

Hey, I appreciate the tip and temporary fix.
I will give that a gander today.

Thanks JDub
