Manual hub swap the 4runner

 

Lol no

I've already sold my parts off, just need to deliver them.

Plus I'll have @eon_blue swap my axle if I bust one since he's got it down to mere minutes.

I need to buy a 34mm or 35mm socket for the ADD axles though; manual hub are so easy since its just a snap ring and collar behind the hub body.

 

Getting it ready

 

Add axles are pretty easy, expect for the seemingly crazy torque spec at the hub

 

Maybe if I still had the 04 but I . Rocking a newer truck now. Looking like it will work though. 21" from bed floor to top of bed rail so add 2" or so for the ball and I should have plenty of clearance

 

Yeah, while the only hard part with manual hubs is beating the hell out of your brass drift to knock those cone washers loose.

 

Only if they've been rusting there for years

Anti seize

 

Or if the truck you pull them from have never had the hubs removed, ever

Obviously they didn't wheel hard enough

Or they'd be tearing into the front end every few months

 

Obviously because the smart thing to do would be swapping to 40s n tons

 

Someone who understand

My buddy reminded me that the tires he's selling me are actually 42s

 

Eh 50s are the new 40s

 

50s and two tons

 

Well. After 4 trans rebuilds later. I’ve finally swapped the 4r100 internals into the 97 f-350 and along with all the aftermarket goodies, it should FINALLY stop blowing the transmissions up.

 

Used the e04d case... shit shifts like a dream

 

Nah 2.5 ton axles

 

I'm assuming you basically break them all the way down and then rebuild them from ground up to factory spec? is right

 

The ones I got from him are minty
