    Not enough to have a build thread.

    And no. The video previously posted is a 2nd gen Tacoma. I'm assuming you have a first gen since that's where you posted. You have to pull the knuckle off, press out the spindle, press out the wheel bearing, then press everything back together.

    This video doesn't help 1st gens owners. On 1st gens, the wheel bearings are pressed into the steering knuckle. You can't use a bolt-in bearing\hub assembly like you do on 2nd & 3rd gens.

    Take down some user names and when one of your many ECUs dies on you one of us survivors will come give you a ride home...:cheers:

    Just kidding, I love new technology as much as anybody. My current plan if all goes as planned is to buy a 2020 ext cab 4x4, in 2020, not 2045.
