And I hadn't checked your links, but they do look like a capable work around.

My bad, forgot about those guys.
You could probably make something work, but the factory ones are much more robust and I would hate to take a chance, given its purpose.

A pick&pull would be your...

If the vehicle already has the welded-in nuts, the best thing would be the proper bolt

Seatbelt bolts are different threads so as to not get mixed up with regular bolts, that being said, they are...

I have a rear hatch door that came off a JDM van, but an earlier version no doubt.

The motor assembly bolts to the door, and is comprised of 2 subassemblies, the electrical side with the...

Not sure how similar your van is compared to the NA model, but maybe check this thread Rear wiper motor problems!Carbonized provided pictures that may well help. (post #15)

You will need to check...

Realized after posting that my reply was unhelpful, as I misread the problem, then couldn't find the "delete post" button.

Is there something special about that relay.

If memory serves, the...

CV's would only be in play if you were in 4WD and I am assuming you wouldn't do that on dry pavement.

There is nothing inherent to vans to create that particular situation that I know of.
Without...

I haven't held a van master in some time, but I wouldn't worry about what your seeing there.

That is only the casting you are looking at.
The piston is the green thing behind the black circlip....

Even if the rear wheel cylinders were seized it wouldn't create your current issue.
I haven't used a vacuum gauge in years so can't advise there but there are ways to assess the integrity of the...

Boosters are not a known problem area and I wouldn't go changing one unless I was damn sure mine was faulty (horrid job to do)

Generally speaking, when a problem develops shortly after installing...

"I replaced the master and front calipers about 6 months ago and they were working fine after bleeding a few times. Now, the peddle is very hard and they work badly."

Are you saying the problem...

12.2V would be considered fully discharged, so probably start with a new battery and go from there.

Out of curiosity, how did you "check" the fusible links?
(A visual is not sufficient.)

No...

Its been my experience that when wipers go "out of sync" the linkages are usually still okay, the fact that it works sometimes would indicate the linkage is moving, even if the sockets are sloppy,...

Sorry, I wasn't clear.
Several threads on exhaust manifolds and their tendency to crack and leak, same for EGR system problems.
The whole exhaust system needs to be sound.

The hood is the thing...

This is only a new problem for you, it has been covered in many threads, over the years, doing a search will answer all your questions.
In the meantime, exhaust leaking into the cab can only happen...

PCV hose needs to be rated for both oil/fuel resistant and vacuum capable (reinforced).
Heater hose is neither of those things and will cause problems.

There is actually a special tool for that job.
Its a socket that fits perfectly over the ovalish' bit above the threads.

That said, a small pair of vice grips should prove worthy.
Some (most?)...

Might be worth getting a 2nd opinion on the terminal diagnosis.

I say that simply because the cylinders are not "sleeved" as quoted and Toyota blocks are not known for cracking.

I've done it (not on a van mind you, but the procedure is the same)

Remove a spark plug and with the piston 1/2 way up, feed a nice (long) soft rope into the spark plug hole.
Make sure you leave...

85 van are 2WD only, as such they do not have a "front driveshaft", perhaps the front joint failed on the rear shaft??

I've never known a vacuum leak that could cause a low idle.
Ahigh idle, sure, most of the time, but a big leak, that usually induces a stall.

I know very little about the internal workings of an auto trans, but don't believe convertor failures are common, at least not on 80's technology.

How long have you had it and how long has it been acting up?
Have you done any standard maintenance (plugs, filters..., compression test.....) since you've owned it?

When you start the vehicle and the instrument pack does its self check, does the check engine light come on then?
Maybe try inducing a code, just to make sure the management end of things is working.

Have you checked for stored codes?

Well, not bench bleeding the master prior to install will indeed save you like 5 or even 10 mins!

But here's the rub.
When a master is built (or rebuilt) there will be air trapped in the...

Stock height measurements are listed in the manual and are different depending on chassis (YR 31/ YR32)

Have you tried bleeding the slave?
Did you replace any hydraulics?

Well done.
Dont have my manual handy, but IIRC, at the end of the manual their should be a section where the list bolt diameter and associated torque spec.
That will get you close enough.

Out of curiosity where is the leak?
"I noticed a puddle of coolant under my driver’s side right tire"

1st off there has to be about a hundred threads on cooling systems and various problems and trouble shooting exercises.
2nd off, jumping in and changing parts is a great way to empty your wallet...

The special tool is not required, just find a big socket that matches the diameter of the (outside) race, then just tap on the socket.
Go slow and make sure it goes in straight.

AVOID putting any...

I do believe the 84/85 used steering box with centre link and idler arm, no bevel gear in play.

Unless you are experiencing a leak (more than just seepage) &/or excessive play, I would likely...

I cannot imagine why anyone would want to do such a thing, perhaps I am missing something???

No locktite
If you torque fasteners to the proper spec, there is no need.

Yes, that is how seals go in, the "open" side faces what you're trying to hold back.
Thought of another way, as the fluid/grease goes into the recess it increases pressure on part of the seal that...

And don't sweat it, we were all Noob's once.
The only stupid question is the one not asked.

Actually, I'm glad you brought it up as this is the PERFECT time to action the HoD, so much room in there now, you'll probably inly bust 2 knuckles instead 10 :)
Not sure if the factory hoses...

It has to be a tight fit or it will just squeeze out.
If you mic the tip of the input shaft you'll know what size you need.

In a pinch you could try a wrap of tape, I'd lean towards something...

Still cant picture it

Sorry, pic wont cooperate :(

I probably mis-read that sentence, but just in case, never-seize doesn't go on mating surfaces, only on the bolt threads.
I have on occasion been known to put a little under the head, depending on...

Can't really speak to the trans mount as I am only familiar with the 4WD version, that said I looked at your pic and RA and it would appear that the 2WD mounts are like mini engine mounts.
