Vibration

[johl]

if you cant get your axles out just put on a stocko wheel backwards and smash the fuck out of it with a hammer

LOL, yeah I started to do that but pulling n the car started rocking on the axle stands... I'll get the hammer and the spare out.

a mate installed a dildo in your car as a prank?

Not 100% sure, but have heard of people taking the drum off, flipping it and then putting the wheel nuts back on slightly. Then just grab hold of the drum and then that will act as a slide hammer when you slam it into the wheel nuts. something along those lines...

Arh, good idea! I like it, Thank you!!

So it turns out some bright spark at Toyota liked to use 'Staked uni's' the kind that i cant replace myself and alot of driveline joints wont replace either. They reckon to rebuild the tailshaft with the use of replaceable unis is going to be around 1g! The other option was to build a 1 piece for like 600. Im not keen on the single piece as Im worried it'll create some vibration of its own.

So options, 2nd hand tailshaft with the chance I'll be in the same boat again in the nearish future. Or spend a buttload on either a rebuilt 2 piece or custom single piece.

There is also the chance the car will get some kind of 'more modern' motor in the next couple of years, possibly needing another tailshaft anyway, which makes the idea of spending heaps not too attractive either.

Anyone got any thoughts on this? Or have an old tailshaft, lol? WTF I thought uni's arh not too much hassle then, WRONG!

So a custom tailshaft with holy massive unis has solved the issue.

At least I'll be able to make as power as I want and be OK.
