I have a 98 Landcruiser I bought a few years ago with its factory cassette player which I use all the time but it randomly ejects the tape. I push it back in and could be fine all day or it ejects again a few secs later. Closest 90s prob I got on the topic unless we want to talk about being...

Do you recall which year and optioned 4 Runner the alt would have come on? EDIT Nevermind found it on google etc. Toyota 4Runner (1985 to 1991 with L4 engine)

Years ago I traded a Miata that I just stopped driving because of back issues for a 65 Karmann Ghia. The Ghia was a mess but looked cool and I had been wanting one so no regrets. It was basically a bondo’d turd with shiny paint. Here is a pic of it behind a scooter I rattlecan painted.

Ok so made some changes and I can be more aggressive when I drive it now and I do feel the 2-3 shift. Its not super firm but I wasn't at WOT, I'll call it a win since I couldn't feel it at all before. For those wondering what I changed: I upped the timing from under 5 to around 10, I think I...

Ok thanks for the input, I'll hold off on any band adjustment, it would be nice to go a weekend without crawling under the car anyway :p I don't know the rear gear yet but pretty sure its not deep at all, next time I have the rear up I'll count the turns. I couldn't find a tag with any ratio...

This is for what I’m pretty sure is a 904 behind a 318. I can’t feel the 2-3 shift in normal driving, I know it is going into 3rd based on pulling it into 2nd manually and that difference I felt. Just seems imperceptible compared to what I’m used to. Normal? Need a band adjustment?

Yeah F that. Need to organize the Poorer Tour for us low rollers.

I have a variant of that unit, or very close, in my 77 Corvette. No major complaints other than a couple of years later the volume knob is acting up, I don't think its a regular potentiometer because the way it misbehaves is so different, not typical crackly sound etc. Anyway just something to...

I dug a little and found some reports that it may be stock as well, for the covers all I've found with a quick search on summit are some covers that are more off road focused and for the price I'm not sure I would want to get one. I'll probably just clean up what I have for now.

This is a little further out. For the drawing I wondered if it was wrong or just there are variations of this rear that isn't covered by the drawing?

Yep thats what really threw me off.

After looking around and even finding an image with an ID chart I'm still not quite sure what I have. The amount of bolts on the cover is correct but the image doesn't really match, can someone confirm? The ID chart: What I have: I'd like to figure out what the potential is for this diff...

Thats exactly what I did. Even beyond bolts I discovered with my last old car, a 77 Vette that some things that don't work will start to if you gently exercise them back and forth, the same is happenning with this car. I'm also slower because I never did much work on a classic Mopar before, its...

Well slowly doing quick jobs :p Last weekends quick job that took all day was replacing the water pump, pump itself was fine but the gasket behind it gave up. Took forever because these bolts haven't moved in decades and two really fought me, I used some of my tricks and slowly worked it out...

Following this because while I don’t even have a working heater blower, eventually I’ll have AC and will want a good dual belt pulley set up. If it’s a lightly modified Toyota unit I can get at FLAPs all the better. Could this machining be done on a HF mini lathe? I only need flimsy excuses to...

I just installed an AMD tank and it’s silver/galvanized. I was actually wondering if I should paint it to preserve it.

Changed out my fuel tank and cleaned up some of the jagged edges from the rotted trunk, that’s a project for another time.

You aren’t an expert but you did a better job writing that up than many experts when writing steps to test a function. I QA software for a living and always tell people to put details like that and don’t assume people just know what you mean, a pic is worth a thousand words as they say.

Westworld and this cheesy horror movie where a guy becomes a giant and grows to where half his skin is missing. But Westworld gave me nightmares, I saw these when I when I was around 5.

Back in the 90s when I was really budget conscious and needed new richer rods on a AFB I grabbed an extra set from the junkyard, you could still find them, and then while watching TV I would turn then down with different grits of sandpaper and my fingers. It was painful and while it sounds...
