Where to buy Toyota 3rd member

md1 · 03-30-2005, 07:28 PM

I have a bad virbation coming from the rear of my 1995 Tacmoa. I had installed a locker and all was fine, but I did not like the drive on the street, So I removed it and put it back to stock. Well now I have a virbation so I guess the putting back together I screwed up. Was hoping you guys could tell me where to buy a complete 3rd member.

Thanks
Mark

Double check the drive shaft - pinion
sometimes its recommended to to match the two pieces before removal-
try a different position-
What exactly did you do - just install/remove a lockright?
Wht is your current gear ratio?
- Have you taken things apart to inspect for damage?

Depending on urgency-
You can check the shops that deal with Toyotas
Frontrange Offroad, Marlin etc....
TTORA Classified & Ebay can yield you one
POst in the want to buy section

Took the truck to Toyota today and they said I had the drive shaft out of phase and the made a U-joint go bad. Well that better then the 3rd member.

Thanks for the input.

Thanks for the input.

So I guess my original suggestion was right on target-
-another reason to place match marks on the drive shaft - even between the shaft & pinion flange

yes thanks for the input my only problem was I marked it the first time and then when I removed the locker I could not see the first mark, so I made one and I guess when I put it back together I used the frist on the drive shaft and the second one on the 3rd menber. I never said I was smart

again thanks
