    The same hub fits and is machined with the correct truck specifications. The part listed as 930107 will not fit the trucks specific. I have brought this to Dorman's attention and they have chosen not to do anything about it so far. If you get the 930107 and try to install it in the 2005-2009 Tacoma 4x4 it will fall into the bearing. The center bore of the bearing is 2.127" while the center bore of the hub is 1.22" so it wouldn't fit at all. The only one that does fit every application from 2005 and up Tacoma, and 2003 and up 4Runner is the

    Dorman 930403. I know this from multiple years of experience building these assemblies and working on these trucks.

    @BamaToy1997 I know the 403 fits - as I mentioned, I had it in my truck before. Until they fix their application guide, I'm not goint to consider getting a Dorman hub when there are other hubs of equal quality. The DuraGo hubs and bearings are holding up fine; they are about to pass the Dorman's in longevity, but since I off-road, that's not a fair comparison.

    I'd like to see some documentation on them having a higher longevity than Dorman hubs. I have built close to 10,000 units with Dorman hubs and have not had a single failure from the hub, and less than a .1% failure on the bearing. I have units with over 150k miles on them. The hub is a piece of machined steel, so realistically I don't see there really being a difference, other than I can get a Dorman hub for less than $30, but the DuraGo hub is about $40. As for comparison, you off-road, and that is fine. Many of my customers do as well with the Dorman hub and have never had an issue.

    For what its worth, I bought bearings for my 08 from @BamaToy1997 at a fair price and installed them myself, no fuss no muss. I trust the majority of vendors on this site for my truck!
    99$ ??? You buy cheap you get cheap.
