    Oil leaking from alternator?

    I'm mine is leaking as well, but it appears to be from the pipe connected to the oil pan. Anyone know if it's a generic tube I could find at an auto store? Or is it something I'll want to special order?

    Monroe MA708 air inlet mcgyver fix

    So... Was away from home and realized that the goofy plastic air line connector to one of my Monroe air shocks had blown off... Seemed like a bad plan to drive home without any air in them so a solution needed to happen. After much searching about I realized that a low side vehicle 12 to 12a...

    leaf spring swap

    That sounds frustrating! Thanks for confirming these aren't the correct oem replacements. @stevenlee I'm mentioning you as this issue seems fairly serious and you're passing it off as though it's not important... IMHO, you've done @CodyHennigan wrong and it's important for me to support them...

    Rear diff angle

    Thanks!!! That's a really handy bit of info. Looks like my photo didn't attach. Looks like my rear suspension and transmission bushings have sagged. Also, someone reinstalled my propshaft incorrectly. Cheers!

    leaf spring swap

    I'm curious how you're doing with this. Make any headway? I contacted rising sun today looking for leafs and was sent the following picture. Is that the same guy you bought yours from? When I asked if they were HD or for lifted vehicles he didn't reply. Is this what you recieved?

    Rear diff angle

    Hey guys, doing a bunch of work on my 91 l300 and I'm really curious why my diff isn't angled straight towards the transmission. Is it normal to have it angled up like this? Thanks in advance for the input!

    L300 "stage 2 front brake upgrade"

    I'm doing the "level 2 front brake upgrade" from stock, as detailed by the admins and helpful members. Thanks everyone! Thought I'd document my progress, part numbers, etc... as I'm in Victoria BC, and things might be a bit different for me than for people in other parts of the world. I'm...

    Tinkering with 4d56 injection pump

    Hi everyone, I've been looking into my injection pump and I'm really curious if anyone has ever played around with being able to control the case pressure. My understanding is that the case pressure controls the pump timing advance. Apparently there's a solenoid on one of the 4m40 pumps...

    4D56 VGT Turbo

    Yeah... He's just responded that they won't release the original Garrett part number. Lol I think it's interesting that there's a Garrett vgt out there that'll work on a 4D56, how to figure out which one it is? No idea. Lol

    4D56 VGT Turbo

    Right!? Hahaha He just got back to me about how they "tuned" it without collecting any data. "With "tune" I mean modify the actuator and compressor bracket for example. The turbo is the original Garrett." It seems to me that they should be able to provide the Garrett flow maps if it's a...

    4D56 VGT Turbo

    I've also run across this recently and just came here to see if anyone else has any success. Andres Muriel at Saito claims it's not an original Mitsubishi vnt, but rather a Garrett base VNT with a Saito "tuned" compressor wheel. He also confirms it will bolt on to a 4D56/ 4D56T, as in the...

    Cylinder Head Studs Upgrade and more

    I'm browsing older posts and I'm wondering how this worked out for you. Also, this is the first I've heard of a 4m40 IP on a 4D56. I'm really curious if it offers any major advantages, and how hard it was to install.

    Anyone know where to get the rear brake adjusters?

    To follow up on this in case anyone needs a brake adjuster. I ordered a left and right side adjuster from the Japanese warehouse on Amayama. They confirmed they have inventory. Not how much inventory mind you, but that they could complete my order for 1 of each.
