Install Toyota Pickup/Hilux Rear Axle Bearing, Oil Seal - WITHOUT a Press!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 бер 2018
- I'm installing a rear axle bearing + oil seals on my 1985 Toyota Pickup 4x4, without using a press. Most people don't own a press, so here's how a little extra elbow grease saved me a lot of money instead of paying a shop to press them on. The rear axle/wheel bearing and oil seal installation is similar on many Toyota trucks and 4 runners, both 2wd and 4wd.
Here's a kit for the following Toyotas (No ABS)
amzn.to/3qtwCCE
1995-97 Toyota Tacoma Rear without ABS Brakes
1998-99 Toyota Tacoma Rear
2000 Toyota Tacoma (Built Before 5/00 Production Date) Rear
1984-00 Toyota 4Runner Rear
1984-89 Toyota Pickup with Single Rear Wheels (SRW) Rear
1969-83 Toyota Pickup Rear
1990-94 Toyota Pickup with Single Rear Wheels (SRW) Rear without ABS Brakes
1995 Toyota Pickup Rear without ABS Brakes
1998 Toyota T100 (Built Before 3/98 Production Date) Rear
1993-97 Toyota T100 Rear
**You'll also need to add O-Rings: amzn.to/3rAsjH4
and Snap Rings: amzn.to/30xVhet
as they don't come with the kit**
If your bearings are ok and you just need the Genuine Toyota 90310-50006 Rear Axle Oil Seal:
amzn.to/3qx8kaT
Fits: 1984-2002 4runner
1990-1996 Land Cruiser
1992-1999 T100
1995-2004 Tacoma
1978-1995 Pickup
2000-2006 Tundra

In the intro, I thought you called it the "6 BEER Garage" and I thought that was perfect for all of the shade tree mechanics of the world.
Rich Wyatt your comment wins!
i was going to say the same thing! Back yard yota wrenches everywhere nodded knowingly in approval
6th Gear Garage hey there man. Your vid saved me about 800$ and I thank you for that. I wanted to ask you however if your break cylinder for the drums started leaking from all that slamming? Both of mine did.
That’s hilarious I had to replay it like 10 times and then looked at the comments lmao. I thought 6beers sounded perfect 👍
@@christianupchurch8988 Wheel cylinders are cheap, it is a good part to change while you are there.
This is a ridiculously good quality video. Fantastic job describing the process. Definitely subscribing!
best DIY video i've found yet on this process. will be doing this ASAP
One of the best quality DIY mechanics videos I've witnessed. Excellently explained, no unnecessary dialogue or footage yet comprehensive enough to do the job properly. Subscribed
Man i thought i had no hope in doing my rear bearings without a press this helped a lot as there is no other video i could find that showed a way without a press fingers crossed 🤣🤣
By far the most straight forward video on this particular repair.
Well done video. Five stars.
All DIY video makers ought to have look at how this guy stays on point and moves things along.
Best, affordable rear wheel bearing replacement I’ve found also. Always love saving money! Thank you sir!
I have an 86 Hilux and no press and this is my next job. The 'bearings in the freezer' trick is was spot on!.
ASE Master Tech here. You have saved me a bunch of heart ache! Thank you!
I have to tell you this was the best explaining and demonstrating video I have ever seen , Thank you to making such a wonderful video .
Very, very clever. I love simple workarounds like this. This should make the process SOOO much easier and less costly.
Great video! Makes the job seem doable in a weekend without having to rebuild the whole axle
You just made me feel A LOT more comfortable should I ever have to tackle this job. I thought it could only be done with a press and that big ol' tool.
Awesome work!
Awe man!!! Awesome! I wish I would have seen this before I just changed my oil seal. I just did a temp job knowing I would be replacing it again for the bearing.
Well there's always time to do the job twice!
Last year I got broke down in San Felipe Baja California. I was lucky to find all the parts at Autozone in San Felipe and replace it exactly this way. It’s work. Great video
Thanks for this video! I just wrecked my palms (and some plywood), but got both sides off in about 15 minutes! Saved myself some money at a shop, or time making a custom jig for a press. Cheers!
Very helpful and well narrated. Thank you for taking the time to film and narrate this.
VERY helpful video. Currently rebuilding my rear axle and your links take away the hours of searching for part numbers from toyota! thank you
Awesome.... time to do my leaking wheel bearing seal, just needed a refresher course, thanks!
Thank you so much for the tutorial on rear axle bearing replacement. You are the Shelden Brown of Toyota. 👍
Common sense approach that I would have never come up with! Thank you!
Looks pretty straight forward. I am doing the rear brakes on my '87 2wd Pickup and found the oil seals leaking. So I'm doing the seals and bearings while I'm at it. If I can't find a shop to do the hard stuff I'll give this method a try. However, I would never reuse a cotter pin. New ones for me. Good video, thanks!
Thank you for making this video, I have a 94, and it’s the exact same procedure, I thought I would have to take it to a garage until I watched this video, saved me hundreds, extremely helpful, thanks again!
Good to know the 94 is the same as the 84-88. I get asked that a lot.
bro is that with an ABS tone ring on the axle shaft?
Excellent excellent video! I have an 07 FJ Cruiser that is leaking oil so hopefully its rear bearing/seal setup is similar to this one. Thank you for making such a clear and concise video for this project🙏🏽👍🏽
Hi Mate, just wanted to give you a shout out and say a big thank you.
On my most recent trip away over the Easter Holiday to northern Australia, my wheel bearing smashed into 4 pieces 1,200km (750miles) away from home.
All the mechanics i contacted told me it could only be done in a workshop with a press!
I sourced the parts, and with limited tools and lots of cursing I replaced it on the side of the road with the confidence from your video.. thanks heaps, I owe you a beer!! Cheers!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😎
You did this job on the side of a road?!? You are legend!!!
For someone with more 4runners and no hydro press is so challenging. Thanks for the manual disassembly . That someone is me.
wow, great video! I need to do this and don't have a press! I was thinking of the old freeze the part trick and you proved it works on this job! Thanks!
In the mid of changing my wheel bearing on a 92 HiLux. The retainer ring would not move an inch, after pounding the backingplate for two hours i gave up haha. Found it easier to use different sizes of chisels between the retainer ring and wheel bearing to sort of press it out. But very good video
By far the best how to video I have ever seen. Right speed, great commentary, excellent video. Keep up the good work. Own an 87 4Runner. Very helpful.
Thanks for the good feedback! I'll keep it up for future videos.
Thanks Brother! I have a press and still used your method. It saved setting up the blocks and balancing act of the axle in the press. Took less than 1 minute per side to get the bearings off the axle and just moving them to my machine shop would have taken that long. Thanks for the video!
No way? It’s a miracle when repairs actually go as planned. Haha I just noticed oil stains around the 4 studs and plate. Hopefully bearings aren’t going out
I admire how the job is done and presentation is very best. Professionally done.
Simply, well done. Easy to follow. And fully explained
Thanks for your Professionalism from Thailand.
This was a very good explanation video and simple it help a lot I just took out all necessary worn-out parts and replace them
And I always thought Americans always use shop machines and equipments to do the job. Your style is what I'm looking for.
Thanks for the video and Great job.
Haha not me, I work with what I have 👍
No BS and right to the point. Good job!
Very well done and comprehensive video on how to change wheel bearing on my 92 Toyota Pickup, excellent job. Thank you.
Glad it helped!!
Extremely comprehensive , cheers mate
Clean looking truck! Great description of how to do this. Great video
Excellent job here guy. Real clear and straight forward. THX
Bro, you are a God send. Thank you immensely for this video.
Very helpful Vlog. Thank You for taking the time to make this video. My Toyota is next
Literally used this video today and did this exact process and it worked great. Thank you!
You're welcome!!!
Great video helped out alot just did my 2001 toyota tacoma rear bearings and seals thanks
Your video helped me with my Frankenstein.
Thanks so much. 03/28/2020
88 yota with turbo diesel
South west Florida
Well done: im going to follow this procedure with my Tundra
Good video .. for all those who complain that they don't fix it because don't have proper tools.. 👍👍
Deeply and completely instructed
That was very informative. You got me to subscribe on this one. Thank you for all the good work! 👍
Thanks for the vídeo i already changed the bearings of my car good job👍👌
Fantastic Video! 5 Stars! Cheers from Wisconsin
Thanks for the info in the idea I built my own fixture and I have the same press it work great
You rock! I’ve been looking for a way to save money on a rear disk conversion on my first generation Tundra. Now all I need is a toasted sequoia or FJ rear end for all the parts.
Great tutorial video, nice job especially without a press, you made it look quite easy👍
Thank you 👍
Your attention to detail is amazing ! Subscribing right now thank you.
Wow....u sure showed how to do it without a press! Thanks!
FANTASTIC narration!
Used this method on an 03 tacoma today. It worked beautifully!
Great to hear!
The ABS tone rings didn't change the process? I have leaking seals on my 97 tacoma
Yep finally a no bullshit video, just good helping tips. 👏
Excellent video and easy to follow
Thanks for the awesome vid, it was great help, don’t stop posting first gen yota videos!
Dylan thanks! I have many more on the way 👍
My lc engineering kit just came in the mail this evening both sides hope it's as good as OEM or close gonna be doing this same job before the end of the week
Excellent video. Very informative and useful.
I really only use UA-cam to watch your videos lol! Man u are the "sheet bomb!" Best vids going!
Thanks for your sharing .. now i got a lot of idea and skill how to make it done ..
Excellent video, your efforts are appreciated
Great video! I purchased a 20 ton press at harbor freight for like 160 a few years ago. It has paid for itself 10 times over. Doesn't take up much room in the garage either.
I'd love to pick one up one of these days.
Great vid mate, I'm all set to do the same to my 2002 Dual-Cab this weekend. Cheers!
Best of luck! Yours should be slightly different with ABS and rear discs instead of the old drums like my 85 has.
Best video with detail
I have a press, but I don't have a garage. Swings & Roundabouts, eh?
Thanks for the walkthrough. I'm going to have to do the oil seals on my Hilux Surf [if it ever stops raining over here in the English summertime] and, ironically, your video made it seem easier than other ones I've watched which did use a press. My only "wince moment" was when you used the pipe to drive the retainer on and the retainer was hitting on the centre of the wheel bearing, rahter than the edge.
Great point! I see what you mean... I should have placed something such as a giant washer between the pipe and the bearing.
Great video!!!!! Helped me out a lot!!!
Thanks
good job in the video, thanks for showing you nice skills
I loved the video and decided to try it for myself, but no matter how much I banged it I couldn't release it (also have the abs ring). Ended up building a puller tube that uses a 3 jaw puller to remove it. Worked seamllesly, highly recomended it if you don't have a press.
That was a good solution. I'd love to see the design of the puller tube.
thank you so much, you explained well and i learnt a lot.
I bought new backing plates not knowing it would be necessary to have some special press to take that off.. now im going to try again like you did. THanks for the tips!
Good luck and wear some well padded gloves!
@@6thGearGarage Thanks I will!.. Was thinking about the plywood and how it got chewed up.. I have a 1/4 inch copper plate.. was thinking of using that instead.. that way more of the energy would be transferred to the shaft..and maybe help get it off sooner.. The wood seemed to absorb the shock a little.. i guess in the end you would have bigger biceps!.. ;-)
@@mg43472 the wood absolutely absorbs a lot of the force. I was tempted to do a couple of taps on the concrete, but knew it wasn't worth the risk of smashing up the splines. I was out of breath by the end!
@@6thGearGarage Yea.. no.. not smashing it into concrete!.. you wouldnt want to mess up the splines..!
owesome job. very simple way and helpfull.
So far the vest video for this job, I was almost in my way to purchase a press ( that was going to be sitting in my garage for eternity without been used again) however no I know a press it’s not need it to get the job done, thanks 😊 by the way next time try hitting the retaining ring with a chisel, it will expand it and will be easy to remove
Great video I tried it and it's working great no problems thanks for this video
Great to hear!
Great video! You narrate very well.
Glad you liked it!
It was helpful for me cause I like to do things the hard way instead of buying a press
I found a good deal on a used press a few months after making this video. Figured it would come in handy... haven't used it once.
Great video. Helped me alot
Very good video ,Thank you
Thanks so much! It only took 8 hits on the plywood for mine to come free.
That might be a record... never had one let go that fast. Or you're a beast.
Great vid!
I looked all over my area for a 20 ton shop press. Even a hundred miles away. So I build one. And I’m glad I did no pounding for me. If you don’t have a press take your axle to a shop and pay them to press the bearing.
I actually bought a used harbor freight 12 ton after this. I haven't had to do axle bearings since, but it's been useful for other bearings. No more sore hands!
Amazing detailed content.
Awesome video
Great video, helped me out a lot!
Glad it helped!
Pro tip. To remove the rear retaining ring that is pressed unto the axle shaft, cut as far into it as you can with a small cut-off disc. Just cutting about halfway through will weaken the ring just enough to crack it with a cold chisel and hammer. It will save you the hassle of banging that assembly into the floor for 30 minutes.
Juan Martinez I will try that next time 👍👍 thanks!
If one does not have air tools or electric grinder at their disposal, you can drill a few holes and use a chise and hamer to helps splinter the retainer also. Juans way is much easier when access to tools is not a problem.
hello there Juan. thanks for the pro tip👍
That sounds like the best idea. Just go to Toyota and get a new one before you start the project.
Great video thank you!
Thanks, it really helped me
I've heard that flipping the retainer ring (bevel towards bearing, flat towards diff) can allow a better seal contact (apparently Toyota resigned the axle seals, so the witness marks are more inboard, closer to the beveled edge). I need to do all of this to my truck as well.
Nice video!!
Awesome thanks your the best so far
Thank you!!
great job explaining
Thank you. Thought for sure I needed a press.
It definitely makes life easier, but there are ways around it.
Got both of them done. What a pain.
great video
Qué video tan mas bueno y claro gracias amigo..
Video was helpful but i do not think i can perform this task. You made it look so easy..
Not gonna lie, It's a lot of work. Slamming that axle onto the piece of wood had me exhausted. The rest wasn't too bad.
