Quadratech has a set of corbeau SS for (Black Cloth & Black Vinyl) $339.98 or (Black Vinyl) $319.98.  that seems like a damn good price.  any options on cloth or vinyl?

Vinyl is easy cleanup, cloth helps prevent swampass

I was going to go with a 5pt with 2" shoulder straps latch n link, but those 4pt, 2" corbeaus with the buckle just look so damn convenient.  I hate the 4pts I have because the latch always rode up no matter how tight the lap was, but I'm sure thats because they weren't mounted anywhere near correctly and are were shitty harnesses.  decisions decisions :o
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: Ryan on March 09, 2012, 03:26:10 PM
I got PRP 4- points for the kids so they can buckle themselves in.

I would go 5-point for driver. Especially with your record of roll overs. Hahahaha
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on March 10, 2012, 08:50:36 AM
5pt totally worth it to keep the buckle in place.

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: M4wdFab on March 14, 2012, 03:01:11 PM
i see you were quite generous in the heat donation cup, you can borrow it on perm loan for a while if you want.  It might need a new 10$ drive wheel but i think it was good.  Paul used it for a while and i use to use it to tack stuff in the trailer. 

works on 110, closer to your box the better.  FLux core, no gas.  not sure wire status, but its functional.

Post by: etk300ex on March 14, 2012, 04:14:13 PM

ill get it from the other shop and test it out tonight.  i think i have a shaty mask you can have also.   If you get decent welds out of that baby you will be a machine quality welder!

is there anywhere local to get a 1/4" pipe to #6 JIC fitting?

i think i have you covered,  #6 is 3/8?   or 6/16"s?
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on March 16, 2012, 09:33:36 PM
Either
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on March 19, 2012, 10:10:29 AM
You got any e-fans laying around smike?  Mine stocker is hosed, you can wiggle it like 2 inches lol.


I think may have fucked up on my hydro assist ram, I pulled the trigger on the 2"x6" ram on the last day of A 25% off sale, but after doing some research the 1.5"x6" is designed for the stock pump and the 2" is for the upgraded pump.  So I either exchange it at $30 shipping each way or order the upgraded pump for $150 or give it a whirl and order it later if it blows and do the work twice  ::)
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: M4wdFab on March 19, 2012, 11:05:07 AM
should have just bought my full hydro setup when i got full PSC  :)


i would think a 2" would just be slower and easier on the pump / box
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on March 19, 2012, 11:08:19 AM
since it's assist it should kinda match the box and ram, they might fight each other.  I bet there's a restricted oriface somewhere that you can drill out for more flow.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo

TG orbital, steering column, and mount on order for a nice price!  I've been getting TG stuff from Dave's Off Road lately, he seems on top of things.  He is waiting till TG opens to see if they'll exchange that assist without the re-stocking fee.

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on March 21, 2012, 09:59:45 AM
like this http://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?item=9-7259-6&catname=hydraulic

why's that?  I'd figure you'd want the cylinder end to stay put so your hose fittings aren't rocking back n forth
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on March 21, 2012, 10:01:45 AM
Because you never get things perfectly in plane, and end up killing bushings and bolts and mounts like 571 does.

Don't worry, smike will say for your use it's fine...

Post by: M4wdFab on March 21, 2012, 10:24:19 AM
toyota use is a little different... i never had issues or cared about 1/8 slop on the CJ.


erik does the same with his buggy with a little better setup with Bronze bushings that are replaceable.   Tractor supply off the shelf components were the attraction for me.

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: M4wdFab on March 21, 2012, 11:05:47 AM
id go 3/4 or 7/8ths heims honestly.  i hate TRE, but they seem to work well on the Dak.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on March 21, 2012, 11:31:03 AM
they seem to have proven themselves a weak point on the Dak... have had VERY few steering issues over the years that weren't a TRE bending like a pretzel
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on March 21, 2012, 11:42:02 AM
and the list continues lol

Would those included in your old tie rod smike? ;D  I can probably re-coop a couple hundred for my high steer

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: M4wdFab on March 21, 2012, 12:07:26 PM
actually i am upsizing on my new tie rod, so the old 3/4 heims are available.  i wont have a need for the spare or two that i have also.


they are so cheap from ruff stuff though...

belt hardware on the way from poly performance, installed other than that.

cylinder should be here today.

assist should be arriving in fresno toady and orbital should then be on its way, cross your fingers for firday delivery.

changed the water pump Saturday, broke almost every bolt getting to it, and had to sawzall off the fan clutch.  the studs that came with it were not threaded enough to install the pulley with out the fan clutch so that halted that project.  The s-10 rad i grabbed from smike is too wide and completely opposite hook ups so that's out, probably just going to buy a stock rad.

Where can I get a 50a relay for this e-fan?  all i can find is 20 or 30a at the parts stores

how is 571 set up? two 40amps for the rear and one for the front?

something like that.  if you can't find a big enough relay just run two in parallel.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on April 04, 2012, 01:13:57 PM
That fan has some massive wire on it, i was just guessing 50.

So after reading the pirate 4x4 griffin radiator cooling facts, puller is ideal?  Never thought about it, makes sense to not blow hot engine air through the rad I suppose.

I think my engine loses about 500 rpm when the fan kicks on lol

Well I have a cylinder, steering column and an orbital :D

I'm going to go to TSC tonight and see about lines. The high pressure line has become one with the steering box, even after spraying it with liquid torch for a month.  So hopefully I can look up the fitting info online today.  Maybe get a new stock line and get an adapter fitting to the orbital?

Did you end up making a new tie rod?

Going to be in the shop tomorrow night?

i made a new tie rod for 571 and went up in size on tube and heims.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on April 20, 2012, 08:38:09 AM
TSC had about 1 or less of each fitting, and hose either 1' or 5' jeesh!  At least I got an idea of what I need now. 

Figured on going with 3/8th hose or should I go 1/2? 

and why does my stock high pressure line like 4' long and does all kinds of loop d loops whens it s 1' away?  Can I just go straight in or is that designed like that for a reason?
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: Ryan on April 20, 2012, 09:22:41 AM
TSC makes hoses any size you want. You have to ask. They do 90 or straight on the ends. What fittings do you need?
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: Ryan on April 20, 2012, 09:23:08 AM
3/8 is what we all use.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: M4wdFab on April 20, 2012, 09:25:25 AM
its designed like that to be a "cooler"


i misunderstood your txt, ryan is right TSC makes the hoses, they have a ton more stuff in back and anything you need they should have instock, and make while you wait.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on April 20, 2012, 10:56:12 AM
Well wtf, I asked the guy if that was all they had and he said yep, you think they would of shared that  info...

Orbital is SAE 8 and came with #6 jic fittings.  Ram is SAE 8.  Pump is I think 3/8 npt, I have a bolt that matches lol.  low press is 5/8 hose. 

This was my plan as of 11:00 last night  ;D

Ram & orbital: SAE8 male x 3/8 npt female swivel 90.  3/8 hose with 3/8 npt male

High  pressure:  match bolt the fits x 3/8 npt swivel.  3/8 hose with 3/8 npt male

Low pressure: SAE8 male to 5/8" barb???  or combination thereof.

Once out, turn the restrictor upside down on a hard surface and tap a couple of times. A bushing will fall out. Now drill the orifice in the restrictor out to 13/64. After drilled out, put the bushing back in and bolt it all back together

Yeah we checked the resistance right?  My FSM's really suck for finding shit with no Index.  But I found a more detailed CEL section and it details each item out on how to troubleshoot it in great detail.  I'll get on it this weekend. 

Your not suppose to check the codes with it running either.  That might of been the problem when we were trying to check it at big hawgs.

i must have not been present when you were trying to check codes.  i thought we tried the on off on off on thing and it didnt work.


we measured the resistance hot and it was within range, probably exactly correct.

You have to use a jumper in the testing port.  I tried it a couple times at big dogs, it just blinked without end.  I dont know what the deal was, worked fine yesterday.

I wish I had a bigger yard lol

Replaced the temp sensor, CEL went off immediately and it actually believe it or not seems more responsive.  It would bog down when you hammered on the butterfly before, I just figured is was cause I was hand operating it faster than designed conditions, but it revs right up now.  Need to test it out this weekend, maybe hit up WP.

Fuel filter is slightly leaking, seal is missing a chunk, its only been apart 75 times jeez lol.  Could be the air problem???  What are you guys using for inline filters?  everything I see is not for efi.

Post by: M4wdFab on May 14, 2012, 12:53:57 PM
that is an interesting thought, i wonder what my fuel filter on the buggy sees, i wait, its pre pressure before the pump so it doesnt matter AT ALL.  autozone, 3$ for a clear filter done.  i got a metal one figuring it would be a little less likely to fail racing, but clear is nice for anything else.

Post by: mr.mindless on May 14, 2012, 12:57:10 PM
With the pump below tank level, I guess it should be okay to draw through the filter. Has been okay so far... But I know it's no a suggested configuration.

yota pre-wheeling again punchlist:

-#1 make run more-better  :o

-exhaust needs a couple clamps 2.5"

fuel:
-new filter element & 0-ring replacement kit from jegs $7
-new fuel lines 3/8" & relocate cell to the back

alt:
-connect 12V remote charge wire yellow wire--> terminal #1, white wire--> terminal #2

steer:
-drill out PS pump for more flow 13/64 drill bit, see page 12
-larger PS res 3.5" exhaust pipe
-replace TRE's with rod ends.   M23 x 1.5”

axles:
-change fluid drain plugs have disappeared :o
-new knuckle ball seals TG trail safe $50
-top locks on steering arms 12mmx1.00
-5th stud mod while front ends apart apart
-add some beef to bottom of front diff before there is no where to add beef too
-chop out bump stops
-move shock hoops up

brakes:
-cant get rear drums off. 
-ebrake would be nice. 
-front lines are both pinched, how the flowage?

-add some storage

-trailer needs all new u-bolts, or a trip to scarp yard 1/2x6x2-3/8

some day:
-rotate pinion:  cant use u-bolt on diff side, maybe bolt on like d60?  high steer is prob the way?  slide box style spring mount in lieu of shackles?  shackle's up front?  start over with new axle housing?  high pinion 3rd?
-t-case skid
-nitro tank

Should of grabbed the power steering res off the 4runner at J&J to extend mine.  Maybe trip there this weekend.

U-bolts for trailer ordered

What was that high pressure fuel line you were speaking of smike?  I cant find the thread.

Whats the consensus on fuel filter for EFI, if its before the pump does it matter?

Need someone manlier than I to get the fuel pressure reg off ;D

Need to get to WP after I get the trailer fixed and figure this fuckin problem out

Post by: M4wdFab on June 20, 2012, 09:15:31 AM
most cheap anything filters are 5-15um put one before the pump.  The pump is what you need to worry about the the injectors.  the injectors have there own 30um filters and wont care.  if your pump is graveling enough to clog the injectors you have failed already

why dont you drop your trailer off so i can use it to scrap this week, and ill bend your axle back.  its just the one axle right?  so i could match it up to the good one.
Title: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on June 27, 2012, 09:46:30 AM
Is that really something like a quarter inch difference?

With movement there it wouldn't be bent tube it would be bent drop or spindle wouldn't it?
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: M4wdFab on June 27, 2012, 09:51:22 AM
ya bend drop bend thingy, doesnt matter.  doubt the spindle is bent, it would be chewing bearings, spitting grease ect. 


put the pipe bender in the center of the axe and bend the middle up
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo

YEAH CHECKED THIS out again last night, the rear axle is actually 2" narrower than the front, was defiantly cut and re-welded you can see the bead is much thicker (1st pic). 


could just bend it in the middle, then I could swap that worn out tire on that side  ;D ;D ;D

All Trailer bearings packed and tightened, marker lights fixed for the 53rd time. 

I found a spark plug wire that was bent completely shut and way to far up in the boot, surprised it ran at all like that.  Hopefully that was the problem, but I'm sure it's not lol.

Hydro still sucks at turning past center to the right (ram extending) am I screwed with the large diameter shaft?  Coulf drill out the restrictor in the pump, but that would give me more flow less pressure right?

This thing stumbled once yesterday, and fixed itself with throttle.  It was fine the rest of the day, didn't cover a whole lot of ground tho.   

Hydro seems to be getting worse, pump is making a lot of noise, and at low speed it will it turn right wheel just spins, no steering movement.  Its like the pump shuts itself right off...

Picked up a new coil for this hawg and noticed it was the same model I got in VA that didn't work.  So I hooked the VA one up and it worked fine, idkwtf chadley and brian were doing lol. 

Anyway, defiantly much smoother at low rpm's with the new coil, I switched them a couple times to confirm.

This thing ran for at least an hour no problems, then had a couple hiccups...  It seems to typically happens going uphill, but it also on flat ground so its hard to say.  Smike said take it to the dealership ;D ;D ;D

Another observation, my hydro was working great for a good couple hours until I let is sit off for a awhile, then loud whiny pump, and no ass.  heat issue???  Pretty freaking dangerous on the road too haha, really loose, thinking its because of the tre's flopping back and forth.

sounds like fluid aeration and then it collects in or near the pump when shut down. small resi? I don't know your setup.

Found this monster PS res off of a landrover.  Drilled out the pump restrictor, figured if it doesn't get better its time for a different pump anyhoo.   

Been reading up on pumps, a lot of yota guys swap to a chevy 'P' pump or the Saginaw 'TC'.  Both of which are pretty rare in remote res and serpentine.  Probably not really worth messing with when the TG 1650psi pump is bolt on for under $200...

Installed a sweet spare parts storage box, everything but a front axle housing in there ;D

Got an ecu off ebay, got a O2 sensor code right off the bat.  It has a resistance of 9 and spec is 5.1-6.3 @ 63F.  Of course there was not one in stock withing 50 miles of my house.  Ran it Saturday and it just stumbled every time I touched the gas.  Put the old ecu back in and it ran better but still stumbling anytime there was load on it.  No code with original ecu.  Guess I'll try replacing the O2 but I have no faith that will do anything.  Getting real sick of this thing >:(

insure it?


go through those tests that Eddie outlined, and if it's not them it's an ICM.

assume worst case - is it worth that cost and effort? Can you skip to the endgame and swap ICMs with anyone/anything?

otherwise, apparently there are $800 5.3 Chevy trucks out there that run and drive but break in half. complete swap, and scrap/sell things to have a $350 or less running LM7, 4L60E, 231.

Post by: M4wdFab on February 12, 2013, 12:13:04 PM
the chevy solution would cause pain with the $$ into toyota stuff already without expensive adaptors.


seems like you should find a rotted 500$ toyota truck that runs and just swap or look into stand alone ECM or propane or something if you cant figure it out.  Tough thing to test though. 
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on February 12, 2013, 12:15:08 PM
The rotten Toyotas don't seem to go for $500, unless that's changed.

the money into Toy stuff is mostly recoverable by selling a geared case, I'd expect?

standalone or propane may be the ticket though, I like those ideas.
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo

Post by: etk300ex on February 12, 2013, 12:33:03 PM
Good luck finding a rotton yota for under 3 grand.  It fucking boggles my mind.

I have no idea about half the things fast eddie is talking about.  I have exhausted my personal engine knowledge.  Everything that I have not changed yet is big money.  I don't know anyone around with a yota to swap shit with.

If I knew I could spend $300 and fix it, sure.  But, at his point I'm not randomly throwing any more money at this engine.  I'd like to go auto anyway and I can get a decent chunk of change for my tcase.  On the other hand I also really hate to spend time to swap something into this package lol but I certainly don't have the cash to start over.

I dont think it needs a 5.3 though lol.  maybe 4.3?  zuk motor?

Josh was having some miscellaneous electrical issues in his jeep, all kinds of lights and codes, replaced his battery and it fixed everything.  He said you ever think about that in the yota?  Which made me think of all the weird shit the cherokee was doing when the battery was in there, and the nuclear meltdown of the alternator when this whole situation started...  Very curious now

To make it carbed or propane it needs a distributor from a 22r, and I would assume some type of intake manifold as well.

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on May 02, 2013, 11:39:44 AM
put a fuel pressure gauge on the rail.

swap injectors from a happy truck if they're not a Delphi item.

what's in your ignition system? ICM, coil, distrib, plugs? I'm sure you've already done the tuneup items. Should be able to throw a generic coil in there for cheap. that'd leave the ICM which I thought was already suspect #1
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on May 02, 2013, 12:23:47 PM
all brandy new except the ICM which is a whole lot of money

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: etk300ex on August 30, 2013, 01:55:02 PM
I have got to fix this thing or do some thing with...

Lets review

Symptoms:
Diesels randomly, key cycle its back for an undetermined amount of time.  Seems more prevalent uphill.

Non fixes:
swapped fuel pump
full tune up + coil
some sensor in the front I forgot temp sensor (was a code)
swapped ecu
new o2  (was and still is a code with new ecu)
no visible wiring issues
have a JY regulator but I cant get the old one off

To check:
1. oil in the distributor?  I have no idea what this means along with 85% or what fasteddie posted on flx, but I can check lol

2. fuel pressure?  Gauge requires some sort of banjo T adapter fitting thing. no longer available from toyota.  LCE sells a kit w gauge for $60.  I need a man to come over and swap that regulator ::).  Is there some sort of obd1 scangauge thingymabober out there?

3. Spark?  I'll get a checker

4. vacuum?  I suppose I could just replace all the hose for like $5

5.  propane swap is expensive anyway you look at it, plus I dont want it.

anything theories?

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on August 30, 2013, 02:03:54 PM
gauges on fuel and vacuum would be most useful next steps.

I bet we can junkyard something for much less than $60 to get on the fuel system.  If we can makes a 1/8NPT home somewhere I have the 60psi mech gauge on a 24-36" lead from Smike that was on dumpbus.  if dumpbus parts don't make it run right NOTHING can.

Fuel Pressure Gauge Kit 22RE

Ever wonder if the fuel regulator is doing its job? Not sure if your getting the right fuel pressure at the fuel rail? The new fuel gauge kit is the answer to those questions. This kit will replace the banjo bolt on the cold start injector with a new stainless steel bolt that accepts a 1/8 NPT gauge that comes in this kit. Included in this kit is the copper crush washers, elbow to face gauge forward, and 0-100 PSI Silicone Filled for Vibration Dampening Gauge that is 1.5".

That banjo bolt is probably $15-20. Remember my other thread looking for the compression fitting.

Fuel pressure gauge confirmed it's a fuel delivery issue. Filter was cleaned several times yesterday and it was good after each.

Tank needs to be drained and cleaned.

1.25 seems to be pretty common shaft size at 2".  What were the single ended ones you guys were running? or were then 2.5"
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on June 05, 2014, 01:37:23 PM
Trapped air would surely do it.

Raise the front tires off the ground. Bring it lock to lock 3-4 times every time you're out in the garage over a week. Ought to bring any air out easily.

Fuel put back together.  Pump is silent, 40 psi at the rail.

I think my u-joint noise was the carrier bearing guard that was smooshed up tight against the flange.

Did a steering inspection, I see a couple potential issues.  Cooler height may have been above the pump, moved.  cylinder is mounted with the ports off the back, potential for air?  I don't however see any "frothiness" in the reservoir that would indicate air in system...   Does whine pretty bad though.

It's a push/pull double acting in both cases (or a double ended )but still same plumbing and mechanics. Lower volume coming out if a steering box hence smaller is needed - and there's already assist in the box too.

Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: Harrison on August 11, 2014, 12:21:11 PM
Why do you need to add 5" to short side? Need room for leaf mount?

I have reused every bearing my axles came with, made sure they were in good shape of course. Stock knuckles are holding up fine with assist. Flanges/outers might be good down the road... But it took me a whole season to break a stock hub with double your horsepower :)
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: mr.mindless on August 11, 2014, 12:38:17 PM
go low steer and you'd never break a knuckle. build a ram guard/ mount so it can be reasonably cut off later when do knuckles arms and high steer.

ditto on reusing bearings on a wheeler.

Was just thinking, I have title but never registered, how do I transfer?  Isn't that "floating the title"?
Title: Re: M4wdriveway Yota Exo
Post by: KingtheZJ on September 14, 2015, 04:26:27 PM
Signed by you? Need a new title from NYS if they want one. Or sell with bill of sale only

yes it is floating.

If only the seller signed it and you did not, there's no evidence of the float other than what you just confessed to here :)

If I want to put my Grand Cherokee on the road after the Jetta rots away this winter, I think I have to deal with some of that. I think there's some extra gibbrish on the back of the title.

I'm titling my white Eagle this week so I can get the buyer a clean title. Sucks, but there's no practical way around it at all with a PA title since the fuckers are notarized requiring buyer and seller signatures at time of notary, and also a notarized buyer signature on the front. Hopefully the 3 year gap in there doesn't bite anything. I assume after letting Gus through that NYS really only cares about the $$ as long as it passes scrutiny of the clerk who takes the paperwork.

Post by: M4wdFab on September 14, 2015, 05:24:26 PM
*signed by sellar but NOT dated (yet). 


DMV can reject if title and sale receipt is dated older than 30 days. 




get the title signed and a receipt without a date on it and with buyer name blank!  #1 rule when POS buying!

Still haven't seen titles for VW or Eagle, I think that's beet 4-5 weeks now. I'd bet rejections would come sooner than titles.

I did notice that 30 day thing on the NY title as I was signing away roadblock and mule. I'd not noticed before.

its NYS  some take 3 weeks some take 6 months.  i haven't figured out any rhyme or reason to it.  I didn't know there was an expedite option for new title.  just for replacement title to same address/owner.

I know Chris, the guy that bought it. He can't hold on to anything for more than 3 months at a time. Has a YJ that he was doing a complete body off "restoration" of that's already up for sale. Don't be surprised to see the toy for sale come spring. Last year a lone, he's had 4 different tow rigs, 2 YJs, a JK, an FJ80 land cruiser, an XJ, and now the toy truck.
