Thanks for sharing this helpful video!!! I am about to rebuild my front swivel hubs on my '91 hilux and I was wondering whether I should use my RTV gasket sealant on the cone washers?
Also should lube the inside of the manual hubs just before i assemble them?
i think your video is great.i was not to sure as what it all looked like stripped down.i have the lj70 and she is a good truck.now i feel i can crack on and do the job after watching you vid.thanks and if i get stuck could i ask you for your advice?
Your video has helped plenty so far, thanks very much.
I saw you use a tension gauge ( at 4:57 of this video ) to measure the pre-load of the hub rotation, same as in your other video for the rear hub. What tension should they be for the front and rear hub respectively? I don't seem to find the info in the service manual.
Thanks mate, i picked up a big tub of penzoil ultra heavy duty wheel bearing grease, do you need to use any silicone or gasket glue on the gaskets? Thanks for your help , cheers
1) which is the most critical step in both dimantling and rebuilt
2) when rebuilting, how critical are those torque settings, would you recommend to go get myself proper torque wrenches
3) I was told to use high temp bearing grease for the wheel bearing, would I use it on all the bearings in the system, or just the wheel bearing. Also would there be any compatibility problem when they are in contact with the Molly Grease for the swival knuckle
@darthvincor I forget the name - it is a synthetic grease, repels water much better but 14 bucks a tube! Thought I would try it out this time to see how it works. Thanks for watching!
Well done on the final video, I'm almost ready for my front end rebuild, got new japanese CV's Koyo wheel & trunnion bearings, just got to go & see Mr T for all the seals. Thanks for the videos, they are definitely a big confidence booster!
PS, would you stick with genuine inner axle seals or go Marlin?
ahh so thats what inside there.. good to know. we got a bunch of toyota diesel pick ups at a mine i work in..poor truck get the poo beat of ot them,,, in mud and water constantly and driven around alomst wide open.. and locked in low range with only 3 forward grears..we change lots of front end parts, rads,alternators, starters but never a engine or trans...we got wet/sealed brakes on all 4 wheels...

What advise would you give to a newbie
1) which is the most critical step in both dimantling and rebuilt
2) when rebuilting, how critical are those torque settings, would you recommend to go get myself proper torque wrenches
3) I was told to use high temp bearing grease for the wheel bearing, would I use it on all the bearings in the system, or just the wheel bearing. Also would there be any compatibility problem when they are in contact with the Molly Grease for the swival knuckle

@Myffrree 1. following the factory manual
2. all torque requirements are mandatory
3. a good quality wheel bearing grease is good for both hub and knuckle.
