Re: Tercel in Adelaide, Australia avaialble for parts.

Not sure if these parts are still up for grabs, but I am interested in the bolt holding the lower control arm on the drivers side (should be identical on both sides, but to be safe..).

Please let me know if you would be willing to part with this - thanks.

Re: Transmission Replacement Issue

Or if anyone knows the bolt part number? I'm not 100% sure its listed in the manual, or if the part number will even help locate it. Would this same bolt be in similar Toyota cars? (Corolla, non-wagon Tercels, etc...) Will the year matter?

Re: Transmission Replacement Issue

Hmm.. it must just be me then. The pics are still not working unfortunately. The bolt in question is on the driver side, so you mentioned there is very little room to play with. It seems that in the process of trying to tighten/loosen the nut using the impact gun we actually ripped apart the bracing...

Re: Transmission Replacement Issue

I have been deep into this as I did a frame area replacement so I could squeeze a year out of my 86 parts car. I can't find them and only one pic(chopped down) still works on my old post here- http://tercel4wd.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2836 The new nut can easily be seen awaiting welding t...

Re: Transmission Replacement Issue

Thanks for the excellent responses all. In retrospect, I believe following garyfish's recommendation of removing the input shaft and then attaching the transmission to the bell housing would have been an excellent idea. I did view the takza/waynehoc post and it was definitely useful in removing the ...

Transmission Replacement Issue

All-knowing Tercel aficionados, I am in the process of replacing my transmission and am now running into some issues. I am reinstalling the entire assembly (transaxle + transmission) and am having a bugger of a time getting it to mate up with the clutch. Due to its weight, I have 2 jacks supporting ...

Re: Misc. Parts For Sale...

What condition are the CV halfshafts in? I may be interested in them, I was just informed by Autozone that my order is currently out of stock at all of their suppliers. :(

Excellent posts, thanks for the responses! I may bug you a bit for a few more details once I get to that stage of things, Paul, if you don't mind. I need to get the thing running first..

Re: My '84's Storied Past.....and Present!

Very impressive Ron. Looks like a thorough cleaning job makes a tremendous difference. I'm just replacing the transmission on my recently purchased '84 Tercel to get it back on the road, but haven't touched the interior yet. The carpets are in awful shape, the seats are marginally better. After seei...

Re: CV/Half Axle/Axle Assy?

Hey Dave, I just picked up two CV halfshafts for my '84 from Autozone.com. Head over to there and see if there is anything in stock to fit your vehicle.

Re: CV Axle Question

Great information guys, thanks for sharing. I've ordered the halfshafts, and also ordered the seals based on garyfish's recommendation (BECK/ARNLEY Part # 0523521). I'll let you know how the swap turns out!

Re: Put the tranny in, but now its stuck in gear

I'm unable to recall what I saw when I pulled the trans, but the 5th gear is exposed? If so, I suppose that could have been a potential issue. I'm dropping the bell housing this weekend to take to him. Hopefully you are right, though it'll be a bummer to have dropped all this money on a transmission...

Re: Put the tranny in, but now its stuck in gear

A brief update: After buying the car I have since taken the transmission to a repair shop. He pulled it apart and says that the gearing looks great. It was in fact stuck in 5th gear, but he has no idea why. He is replacing the center plate, the input shaft bearings, some seals, and we'll see what ha...
