Working from Rogers web page (thanks Roger) I have got it apart, now working on getting the old seal out, but that is a different story. I noticed the companion flange has a definite groove in it. Is there a speedi sleeve available for this application? Dont want to find out what the dealership wants for a new one, thats if they even have one in stock. Thanks guys.

USA 4Crawler Web Wheeler Might be a Speedi-Sleeve kit for that, but you can get a new flange from many of the on-line vendors (Marlin, AllPro, TrailGear, Inchworm) doe $25 or so. Toyota will run you arounf $100. r.c.brown@ieee.org TruckEditor@tlca.org Project: 4Crawler 4Crawler OffRoad - 4x4Wire discount code Re: Companion flange speedi-sleeve?

You were right, dealer wants almost 100$, guess I will be ordering from Marlin, and tearing it back down when I get a new flange. BTW, you might want to add an important first step to your pinion sleeve write up, drain the diff fluid. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Re: Companion flange speedi-sleeve?

I do have the pinion tiped up for the CV driveshaft, so I guess that helps. You could try with the front end uphill or up on ramps to keep the oil in there. I'll add a note to the web page about that, though. r.c.brown@ieee.org TruckEditor@tlca.org Project: 4Crawler 4Crawler OffRoad - 4x4Wire discount code Re: Companion flange speedi-sleeve?

Thanks yet again for all the knowledge that is available here, has saved me much $$$ in fix it myself mode. After the time spent under the truck, there is more to do, and I will be posting a few other threads with multiple questions about that in the near future.
