It seems the clunk sound is coming from the backlash. My ring and pinion is new and my diff LSD carrier is from a GT86 so it is much younger than my original 36 year old open diff innards, so I dont think this slop is coming from the diff internals. It feels like its purely ring and pinion...

OK.. I have thought about it more and next area to look at is the slip Yoke splines of the propeller shaft and output shaft in the gearbox. Has anyone notice wear in the splines. The earliest I can look at it is in 3 weeks time. To clarify further, you dont feel the clunk, but you hear it, I did...

I adjusted the primary regulator valve to soft by turning counter clockwise. The valve was stuck at first due to it being in its place untouched for 35 years. A little harder push with a minus screwdriver and it went in. I turned it from center to horzontal like in this pic. So it helped...

I did some searching and will be doing the throttle cable adjustment and drop the pan to see how the cable is interacting. https://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/302376-throttle-cable-trans-line-pressure-cable-adjustment-2021-a.html and also an adjustment on the primary regulator valve, I...

Has anyone solved this problem. I have it since I own the car 8 years ago. Here are the parts I have changed. 1. Both spherical bushings on outer knuckles. 2. Prop shaft. 3. Center bearing 4. Axles changed to is300 x2 left axles and is300 stubs. 5.gt86 torsen t2 carrier 6. New ring and pinion...

Oh yes, the u joints are tight and the hangar bearing is new. certainly not coming from there.

All my spherical bushing are changed to new. The clunk happens whenever i put it in N to D or R, and whenever I suddenly let off the throttle and also when the car is slowing down to a crawl and the auto trans shifts to 1st gear. As you know I rebuilt the diff many times, and even on some...

As per my title. I noticed the mk3 uses a tripod inner, but the Mk4, IS300 and SC300 which are newer comes with a 6 ball plunging joint on the inner side. Is this actually an improvement ? I currently have a clunk and i strongly suspect its coming from the inner tripod, and as per recommendation...

Like what Abe said, put back to old plugs and try. Also, stating the obvious, make sure the plug wire sequence are correct.

I just converted this VHS tape and uploaded it. I have never seen this video on the internet before. Its for the 2nd gen Toyota Soarer, which is a cousin of the Mk3 Toyota Supra.
