    Quick test

    Oops, sorry it was just a goof. read the post to fast.
  2. I got a reply from the seller and it's out of a 4 cylinder and it has 27 splines so i'm guessing he miscounted and it's 28 splines. So i'm not sure of the answer here, will it fit in an 88 pathy V6?
  3. JJ Big Shoe. That's the best idea i've heard all week! I'm definately going to look into that.
  4. Has anyone done this with there pathy's? I've been in a couple toyotas with dual cases and I definately see where they can come in handy.
  5. Uhmm heater hose as in the hose that goes to your heater core on your pathy. If you have the coils out of the vehicle your best bet would be to go down to your local parts store and ask to see there different hoses. Find one that fits real snug on the end of the coil. You know now that I think of it it could have been a garden hose I saw. :confused:
  6. Well 88 suggested online at some place like McMaster Carr, luckily we have a fastener company here in town that had them. You need grade 8.8 or better. I'm not positive how much lift I got but if I had to guestimate I would say about 1-1/2". I could get more i'm almost positive, but I was feeling lazy and didn't want to reindex the t-bars. As for your JGC coils I seem to remember another member on here used heater hose. He or she just cut off a length and shoved it on the end of the coil.
  7. It's amazing how quickly they change the price Well it took me about a day to get mine installed. I also decided to go ahead and put in new upper ball joints while I was in there. Let me tell you, getting the old bj's out was a pain in the you know what. I followed 88's suggestion and put in longer spindle bolts, other than that everything you need should be included in the kit. I'm not sure how much more lift I squeeezed out of the old girl but I have one suggestion. After everything is complete and you decide to crank the old torsion bars all the way, make sure you are near an alignment shop! I was about 15 miles from one and it was a very slow trip. Between the t-bars and and some sloppy steering components my front end was squeeling like a stuck pig and trying to throw me all over the road. Good luck with your install. p.s. A hydraulic press really helps getting the old bushings out.
  8. I feel for you. I'm in about the same position. Went in saturday for alinment and was told the centerlink and the idler arm need to replaced. Arhh. :furious: (sorry about the spellin , the key in between F and H quit workin.)
  9. Ok mine are going in tomorrow and i just need to clarify. Do the bushings that came with the arms fit or do i need to use the old ones? Any tips or tricks anybody can think of is appreciated.
  10. Mine broke same spot. The rubber just crumbled on mine. if i remember correct I used heater hose to replace it.
  11. Ok just got mine on order, negotioated price of $130.00 to my door in 7-10 business days. Very nice guy I talked with but I didn't get his name. Just to give everyone a heads up he said he only had about 4 left in stock.
  12. That's some beautifull looking country out there.
  13. uhmm it may already be there but what about a spellcheck type thing for us spellling empaered -alcohol-
  14. Thnaks for the encouragement Mr. Pickles. The shop said if I bring in the parts they would install them for around $75.00. From your experience do you think it would be worth it, or should I just dive in and do it myself?
