How in the ever living fuck does that worm gear/input shaft keeper with the pin wrench come off on a 4runner IFS box? I've got 2 rotations out of it but that fucker is tight and keeps breaking tools. I've never been so defeated.
Wonderful and entertaining video. It has convinced me to spend the money and get a re-manufactured unit, because I would more than likely lose parts. Thank you.
@@stevefye915 Just need to be patient, and never use force (hammer) to put things together! Teflon seals, microwave?😱 LOL,screwdrivers, sharp picks are a no no when doing hydraulics One little score on any surfaces with seals and its as good as finished, internal leak? Love the cleaning part of all meatals sealing areas or particulars 🤣🤣 CAN'T see that box lasting years
I’m following this but I’ve pulled my pitman arm off and now I’m wondering how you know where it’s supposed to go back on? Like how do you figure out which splines on the shaft are the correct orientation for it?
I always look forward to your videos. I'm usually in the same boat as you but with twice the cussing and more than likely twice the time. Fine job with the instructions and camera work. Thank you.
Great video Bud. I really enjoyed watching it ... and your comments throughout, made it SO much less boring than around 85% of the other shit on UA-cam.
were did you get this kit from mine is missing the parts you installed a 534 minutes into your vid on that worn gear nut . the outer seal and the inner seal and teflon seal .thanks
Excelente mi viejo. no entiendo el Ingles, pero viendo el paso a paso de tu video tranquilamente se puede realizar el mantenimiento correctivo de la caja de dirección de Toyota. gracias parcero por multiplicar su conocimiento. 👊👍
Om 8:54 until 9:14 you've released Seal, Snap Ring, Metal Spacer, O Ring and Teflon. But why when you assembly its you assembly the piston first instead of Seal, Snap Ring, Metal Spacer, O Ring and Teflon ?
Thanks for this video. My steering gearbox is similar to this, it's a Toyoda and I'm not sure if the repair kit for this and mine are the same. Is there a size ofthe repair kit?
Very useful video, this steering box is very similar to the one found on a 91 4x4 Toyota pickup. Be careful with that power plunger nut because I rounded that too.
the lock nut on the worm gear looks completely different on my 93 4x4. no holes for the pin wrench and only one big lock nut. It looks like a shallow socket, like you could the head of a huge bolt into it. any ideas?
That “pin wrench” is actually a very common tool here in Australia, we use it primarily to remove and replace discs on angle grinders, I’ve got no idea what we call it here though
How much did the customer save by rebuilding vs buying a new one? It also appears the fluid was the now watery original fluid. Lasting 300K Miles is no problem with synthetic fluid, on 3 of my vehicles.
Hey Sam is this the same box/rebuild that I would find on a 93 4runner? I'm going to help a friend reseal the gearbox on his 93 and I'm having trouble finding a video listed as being for this specific truck. Also when you said put fluid on the orings, you mean ATF or PS fluid? Or some other sort of oil grease? And on the large Teflon seal you said microwave for 1 minute, do you microwave the small one for the same length of time? Good video thanks
@@onefortysixam9713 it's not my 4Runner I was just wondering what type of lubricant you recommended for those seals, if you use something specific or special sounds like ATF tho
Mines leaking, and has a lot of play, causing it to pull to the right, due to the crown on the road. Needs a rebuild, but I've driven it like 20k miles while it's been doing all of that
I have play on the shaft with the bearings. The end that connects with the steering shaft. It's fully assembled makes the steering have play. Any idea how to fix?
Hey, thanks for the vid, very helpful, unfortunately I started pulling it apart before I watched this (diesel mechanic so I thought I knew better lol) I didn't mark the cap/ worm gear valve, do you know if it'll cause any issues if guess where it is it seated correctly haha thanks
Wait... did you place that oil seal (11:46) spring side in or out? Yours and mine started spring side out by the looks but itlooks like you placed it spring side in...?
Just about to do this, great video thanks. I've already had to cut one of the chassis mount bolt heads off, so I'm already welding one step before you !
Great video. I will say that a 1-1/16" socket is the perfect size to land on the outer part of the bearing when driving in the input shaft seal. Also, using a small punch to push each individual ball into the worm gear makes quick work of getting the BB's back into place.
What if there is no outer ring ? When you started to take the actual worm gear apart to rebuild it, that first ring that you removed with a hammer and screw driver. Mine doesn't have that outer ring. How do I get it apart so I can pull out the worm gear? I bought that harbor freight pin tool and tried to turn it cause mine don't have that ring. But it won't budge. So what is different? I'm working on a gear box for a 91 toyota pickup. It looks exactly like yours.
I had the same problem as you on a spare gearbox I bought. Decided to ignore it and hope that it's not a problem area. I was able to move it by hitting the wrench so I think maybe letting some penetrating oil sit in there for a few day would have loosened it up. Beside that, there doesn't seem to be any other way
Rebuilt my box using this great guide after fixing leaking steering column seal, re installed and now seem to have more slop in the steering than before (can turn the wheel almost 2" each way before the pitman arm begins to turn). Adjusting the adjusting nut all the way in doesn't seem to fix it. Any ideas where I might of stuffed up??
More specifically, if that large locking nut in the valve body (that you need the pin spanner for) was 360 degrees looser than it previously was, could this cause the slop? I may have tightened it up a rotation less than what I marked it at....
Hi mate I know this was ages ago, but I’ve just rebuilt mine and have the exact same problem. Did you ever solve this? I am not wanting to take it out again but if you’re right and tightening it another 360 degrees will fix it then I might muster up the courage 😅
Just in case someone is wondering how many balls inside the worm sector, there are 44 balls. Thank me later.
Thank you Theo. And in case anyone loses a few, they are 5.53mm diameter and should be available from major bearing suppliers.
@@patrickoshea5173 Mr. Patrick, sir, may all your bolts and nuts be easy to break loose ! Good day sir !
How much balls
I'll thank you now actually, before I even order the parts for my '88 4runner.
This is the best comment I have seen on a UA-cam video
You're really skilled at saying "Mother Fucker". I strive for your excellence.
This video was brilliant, really helped me understand what was involved - I now have all the knowledge I need to pay someone else for a recon unit

What kind of oil did you use? And how did you put it in? Tank you it was a great video
these gear boxes take transmission fluid, which is put in through the power steering pump.
Ok, it's just that my it's not hydro assisted
Just like when your girlfriend squeals and says ooh it's in my hair
Fire fire..

Just fyi, i followed this video to rebuild a steering box on a 1989 hilux. Pretty much the exact same.
I like the real world commentary! Makes me feel at home!
Wonderful and entertaining video. It has convinced me to spend the money and get a re-manufactured unit, because I would more than likely lose parts. Thank you.
Right? Rebuild kit = $20. Rebuilt steering box = $350 to $600. My sanity might be worth it.

Entertaining yet educational. Makes mistakes but doesn't edit them out. How you aren't more popular is blowing my mind.
9:30 Mysterious accumulation of Miller cans...
Great video Bud. I really enjoyed watching it ... and your comments throughout, made it SO much less boring than around 85% of the other shit on UA-cam.
Blood.. I've been trying to find a site to order that rebuild kit...
But am not getting any lock.
Possible you'll be able to assist me ???
What model Toyota is this box off? Not a IFS hilux 3L LN107R by any chance?
Not sure if you reply to comments, but I'm rebuilding one currently and the power piston nut is like suctioned in and won't come out, any suggestions?
I sighted a Harbor Freight pick from the $1.99 set, lol.
Sorry if I missed it but what years Toyota does this video apply to? Hilarious video btw!
this was on a 95 land cruiser
were did you get this kit from mine is missing the parts you installed a 534 minutes into your vid on that worn gear nut . the outer seal and the inner seal and teflon seal .thanks
wtf , 3 hours .i cant see ball bearings for some time now...
thanks though for the instructions.
This video show me how burn 🔥 anything I say anything 😅🤣🤣😍
Most entertaining as I am about to do this on my 4runner but FOR FUCKS SAKE YOU NEED MORE BEER LUBE
Came here looking for howto to recon mine... Subscribed because of the editing style, judicious use of MFer! (: and quality of the video! Keep it up!
That's i learn to rebuild a steering box n to cuss 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This sounds like a normal day in my garage. Super entertaining while helping to understand the internals of a steering box. Thanks
That first 60 seconds getting the arm off i could relate 😅
Excelente mi viejo. no entiendo el Ingles, pero viendo el paso a paso de tu video tranquilamente se puede realizar el mantenimiento correctivo de la caja de dirección de Toyota. gracias parcero por multiplicar su conocimiento. 👊👍
Just did my Hilux box. The main difference is it doesn’t have a piston guide.
Most stuff looks exactly the same.
Best video ever. 😂👏🏿
Not too bad? Looking at doing the same
This was just pure gold.
Thank you

А как состояние корпуса????Это самое главное!!!
My box is nice and tight, no freeplay but leaks like crazy from from pitman arm. Could I get away with just replacing pitman shaft seal?
Where can I get more off the bearing balls
Followed this for a 91 4runner gearbox, I said shit to the exact same spots. Very accurate video, thanks 😂
the lock nut on the worm gear looks completely different on my 93 4x4. no holes for the pin wrench and only one big lock nut. It looks like a shallow socket, like you could the head of a huge bolt into it. any ideas?
Time for lock nut ?WTF crack a beer bro
You are a mad man! Great video. Thanks so much.
Hey Nice video i did every thing You said but didnt mark they part when the fluid goes and now My steering is hard, that part affects??
This was great and you were very entertaining. I really enjoyed it and this convinced me not to try the rebuild right now on my 1989 22r. :)
And, conversely, it convinced me to rebuild my '88 22re steering gearbox at home and further give POS mechanics everywhere the middle finger.

Pin wrench in the USA

Yo mate where did you order that new special bolt the one you welded to get out unfortunately i had to do the same and can't find a new one
Same thing happened to me. After some research I found the Toyota part number and ordered the replacement from the dealer. part number was 4415330020
Is this the same for hilux 1992

Yes
If Someone put power steering fluid in your 4Runner it's probably why you would have to change all of these seals. Don't do that...
@@onefortysixam9713 it's not my 4Runner I was just wondering what type of lubricant you recommended for those seals, if you use something specific or special sounds like ATF tho
Great
Great video but make the section about putting those stupid bearings in like 2-3 hours... royal pain.
Hey what symptoms would the steering box have for you to need to rebuild it? My steering box has a lot of play
Mines leaking, and has a lot of play, causing it to pull to the right, due to the crown on the road. Needs a rebuild, but I've driven it like 20k miles while it's been doing all of that
You’re pretty fukin funny.👍
тефлон нельзя тыкать острой отверткой)) а так - молодец!!
How do you know that the power piston is properly aligned? Should it be In full contact with the worm gear hub/body?
would you suggest thread lock on the main 8 bolts?
Mine vibrated loose and drove home from 2 hrs with manual steering
I have play on the shaft with the bearings. The end that connects with the steering shaft. It's fully assembled makes the steering have play. Any idea how to fix?
Bitchen and comical video. How many beers and 'colorful words' does it take to rebuilt a steering gear?

Great Video! Just do it!
how many metalic ball?
This guy is very entertaining, reminds me of me when im playing with cars, but i will look into getting my box rebuilt by those who know how lol
I used something like your adjustable pin wrench to change discs on angle grinders.
What's the link for the centering valve cap got to weld on mine as well to remove
Just about to do this, great video thanks. I've already had to cut one of the chassis mount bolt heads off, so I'm already welding one step before you !
Many thanks Sam, you're a life saver.
Do you perhaps have the seal number for the seal around the sector shaft exit?
Great video. I will say that a 1-1/16" socket is the perfect size to land on the outer part of the bearing when driving in the input shaft seal. Also, using a small punch to push each individual ball into the worm gear makes quick work of getting the BB's back into place.
Pin wrench also used for doing hydraulic ram pistons
Thanks so much. So helpful

hi sam. how many balls inside the worm sector ?
steering components how many recirculating ball
well done brother
a 20v dewalt impact blows pitman right off.
hahaha I laughed way to at this rebuild. Good stuff man hah
Of the best
Once you center the sector shaft then install the end cover. After that step do you have to place the worm shaft in neutral position?
