    During the magnetic induction process, the high frequency AC creates an oscillating B (magnetic) field which accelerates the free electrons in the ''Fermi Sea" or conduction band of the crystalline lattice body centered cubic Fe atoms. These moving electrons prefer to circulate in the largest elliptical diameter geometrically possible on the outer skin. However significantly rusted steels have a severely reduced ability to conduct electricity or the Eddy currents created by the induction tool. I believe the ratio of resistivity between Fe and FeO3(iron oxide iii) is like 1,000,000,000,000. So a huge relative jump in electrical resistivity just because of the surface rust. I just swaped my Trans Am T-56 without a lift on the concrete floor last winter and froze. Now I have to replace a windowed Toyota Avalon block this winter haha.

    This is a great video. I am glad to see someone whom isn’t experienced tackle these kinds of jobs. It helps to have someone else for sure. I have an HDJ81 and have done quite a few jobs without any help and it can be quite challenging. I bought all new Dobinsons shocks and springs and had them installed by a Toyota dealer………labor isn’t cheap! 😮 Thank you for posting, next time I will attempt it myself.

    I purchased the replacement bolt from a local hardware store. I matched the diameter and pitch and made sure to get the JIS type so that the head matched (12mm) I think it was. If it wasn't JIS, I think it would have be a 13mm head and no one wants that.

    Nice job, what are the arb part numbers for the front and rear springs? How much more height did you gain over stock? Do you feel it's necessary to replace the caster correction bushings? Can you give us a link to where you bought that heating tool? Thanks.

  • @thelandcruiserproject

    @thelandcruiserproject

    3 жыл бұрын

    It's been a bit too long to recall the numbers for the springs. They gave about 3-4" over stock because I didn't have any weight (bumpers, etc). Yes, caster correction was necessary. There's a subsequent video. And the links for the tools I used is in the video description.

    You should consider correcting the caster for anything more than an inch or two. If you don't correct the caster, you can have some weird steering characteristics that kind of feel like oversteer to me.

    It could also just be unrelated. If you hadn't tested going into low range before the lift (and it had been a while since going into low), it's possible it's needing some maintenance to lube it and loosen it.
