Twisted the input off of my 4.7 rear case within the first 4 hours at Harlan. Bent one lower link in the front. Such a rookie.

Been there a time or 2. Is it a 21 or 23 spline? I've got a Marlin Competition Chromo 23 spline input (with bearing) I no longer need. Used on 2 trips. Shoot me a message if you're interested.

Where are you finding 23 spline transmissions? I only saw one on car-part.com and it’s expensive and 1200 miles away.

The output on my doubler is 23 spline.

I pulled a spare 4.7 marlin 21 spline case from the shed and bolted it up. I am not nearly as strong as I used to be. Thing darn near killed me.
I need a lift table.

@ProbablyBroke that hurt 
On the bright side, she was given a good bath and is stored away in the shed at the moment.

I found a little time to fool with the 1983 pickup since I picked it up. Scrapped the Swiss cheese bed, but cut out one bedside to hang in my man cave.
Built a pressure treated bed to get me by. Added surface mount LED tail lights and reverse lights.
Chopped out the garbage exhaust and had a guy up the road weld in a 2-1/4” exhaust I had laying around from a part out.
Pulled apart the front axle and put in new trail gear inner axle seals and wiper seals. Ran all the knuckle parts through my parts cleaner.

I haven’t touched it since I put the marlin crawler case in it. I still need to see if I can rotate that hydraulic cylinder and squeeze the fittings behind it, to avoid catastrophic failure

well, I picked up another Toyota two weeks ago and have been doing more planning on it than working on it. This is the first time I have had anything on one tons, so really out of my comfort zone. But it’s about time I learn something new and this one is pretty worth while.
1994 Pickup (I’m the second owner) from TN. 150k miles , top end was rebuilt at 90k.
Original owner started the axle swap in 2006, life happened and it sat in his garage ever since. 15 years without running. He kept everything very organized and labeled and even bought American made wear parts for the axle refresh.
It was on jack stands and two 39.5 boggers when I got there. I whipped up a bracket to hook up a 5k winch to my trailer and just used jumper cables to get it on the trailer. Beats the heck out of a come a long. Took about 2 hours to get everything loaded. Made for about 10 hours of towing that day.

Got the truck home. And started wondering if it would even start. So I soaked the pistons in marvel mystery oil, changed the fuel filter, oil change, cleaned the plugs. No fuel pressure. Pulled the in tank fuel pump and it was trashed. New fuel pump went in, purged the garbage fuel, she purred right to life. It was a beautiful thing. My girlfriend looked at me like Ralphie’s mom when his old man opens the the crate with the leg lamp.
Truck is:
1994 22re, 5 speed, dual stock cases, Chevy kingpin 60 front, Eaton HO72 rear on 37” bfg Baja’s.
first order of business was to hide the boggers in the woods and find some tires that weren’t 18” wide. Grabbed the Baja’s from @NCJeeplover on the way back from TN. Scored some 30$ 16.5” steelies from @pipeline. Got them mounted up and started pulling leafs out of the front to bring it down to a reasonable ride height.

the interior had coffee spilt everywhere, so I pulled the carpet and pressure washed it. I need to source some newer sliders for the 4 runner buckets, but I got time. The hoping to get a new head unit and the dash put back together shortly.

After I pulled the carpet, I realized just how much extraneous wiring was running under the dash and seats. The previous owner had an audio system and a anti theft system with a birds nest of wire. Also got around to hanging the 5.14 Eaton third. Still need to replace the pinion seal, but I imagine it will be easier to zip the pinion nut on with the tires on the ground. That third member certainly dwarfs a Toyota 8”.

Got a new head unit installed and put the dash and interior back together.
Little bit of heat, some brake cleaner, some pb blaster, a bunch of Ugga dugga’s and I got that yoke off. It was Tight and crusty. Had to shoot @Jody Treadway a text to give me the courage to really smack it with my large hammer. Got the parts soaking in the cleaner hope to throw the new seal and maybe a readi sleeve on it and go.

I bit the bullet on some steering parts. No fancy hex bungs and the pictured pitman arm isn’t included, but high steer, tre’s, Dle’s, studs and 116” of quarter wall DOM for 417$ shipped was the best I could find. The arms are engraved with NWF in the pics, but I’ll believe they are northwest fab when I see it.

Took about 40oz of coffee this morning to get me willing to work on the rear of the truck. Axle was uncentered on the perches and way to high in the rear. Rear pack is a TG 5” lift pack, which are TALL. Pulled 2 leaves out of each pack and got it sitting about where I like it.
Plan is to add an overload to the front and I think it will be about level.
All the steering parts except the DOM showed up. Everything is so huge compared to aftermarket Toyota parts. Arms are not branded NWF, but what do you expect at 200$ less than the other guys.
