Toyota Rear Axle Seal/Bearing Replacement (ABS Rearend)

Did our video help you? If so, consider buying us a beer: https://bit.ly/3feE6tJ *IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE READ THIS AND ALSO THE COMMENT WE PINNED* In this video, we show you how to replace the seals, bearings and retainers on a 3rd Gen 4runner with a ABS rearend. This repair would also relate to other Toyota vehicles like the older pickups, 1st Gen Tacomas and 1st Gen Tundras. ** One thing I forgot to mention in the video is a clogged breather could be the cause of a leaking axle seal. The excessive pressure finds the path of least resistance and that's the oil seals at the ends of the axle housing. *PARTS* *2001 and 2002 3rd Gen 4runners use a different bearing than the 1996-2000.* *1996-2000 Bearing #903634002077 (Need 2) https://amzn.to/3BWtOcL *2001-2002 Bearing #9036340068 (Need 2) https://amzn.to/2rfReoV *Dust Seals (Need 2) *1996-2000 4runner #90313-48001 https://www.toyotapartsdeal.com/oem/t... *2001-2002 4runner #90313-54001 https://amzn.to/2MaKYpR *Inner Axle Seals #90310-50006 (Need 2) https://amzn.to/2OI7eYM *Axle Housing O-Rings #90301-88077 (Need 2) - Product picture is deceiving.
