Ke55-Pez Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 Was thinking of doing it myself, but I gather it'd be more trouble than it's worth. As such, does anyone know of anywhere I could get it done for a reasonable price? Quote
SLOTH Snr Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 (edited) Don't let FEAR hold you back. If you ever want to learn basic mechanics the KE55 is a real simple car to learn on. As Nick said the labour cost just makes it non viable. Tell us a bit about the condition of the car. Is it going? Does it have much rust? Is it stock? I have been taught a lot by ROLLACLUB members and am willing to pass on what I've learn't. Also learnt a fair bit by making mistakes. If you have a try yourself you willend up saving a fair bit of money and the pride in your car will be 100 times greater :y: P.S. Where are you from Edited January 31, 2006 by SLOTH Snr Quote
TRD ke70 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 i might look into to this a little further, i have a couple of K boxes that need rebuilding, so i'll get some prices on bearings and seals and sit down and work out what a box is worth to rebuild. teddy,can you get a price on what a cluster shaft and bearings are worth from toyota? you can't buy these after market.

Ke55-Pez Posted February 1, 2006 Author Report Posted February 1, 2006 Yeah the labour is all that's stopping me at the moment...but if I can get the bearings, seals and other bits and bobs and figure it out myself, I'll be a happy man. Yes, the car is a stock KE55 CS sedan, it's in okay condition with a bit of rust hear and there, in need of some seals in a few places, but it is going. As for me, I'm from Brisbane south side and my name's Tom Quote
Ke55-Pez Posted February 1, 2006 Author Report Posted February 1, 2006 Haha...hopefully it'll all go well and we won't need the therapy :y: Quote
