Ive a KZJ95 1kz-te manual.
Driving along i went to go to 3rd and it didnt exist. Neither did 4th, the rest of the gears were fine. There was no bad noise at all, they just disappeared. I couldnt drive around like this forever but i wish i had actually contemplated that a bit longer.
Ive taken the gearbox off... what a job. Removing prop shafts, starter, clutch slave cylinder, exhaust section and then the transfer case (very heavy) and finally the gearbox. Slid her out this morning on a trolley jack on a sheet of wood on grass in the countryside here in NZ.
Ive taken apart the gearbox, that went pretty well. I was hoping the fork selector bolt may have come undone but it seems like the hub for 3 and 4th have lost their splines.Holding input and output shaft with it in 3 and fourth you can turn them independently, unlike in 1st 2nd.
Im just wondering if anyone has any experience of this? Ive heard its quite common including in hiluxs too but ive never heard/seen of it.
Im hoping i just need to get the bearings pressed off and then press on a new hub. One guy said the shaft splines go too, which would make the work expensive, pretty much everyone else has said its normally just the hub.
I live rural so i will need to somehow get it to a bearing press and get it done, maybe even hiking with it over my back so im hoping i can get a run down from someone who may have being here first so i know what to expect when i happen upon a press.
As you can im sure realise money is tight so im not going to go for a full recondition like most people try to sell me (quite rightly they do)
