Toyota Landcruiser - Rear Wheel Bearings & Axle Oil Seals (70/80/105 Series)

[@2ndGearLow]

We've been fortunate enough to receive some feedback from a highly experienced and very well respected mechanic on this video, which I'll share here: 1) Rotor indexing - mark the disc rotor and a lug stud prior to removal of the disc, so that you can reinstate it in the same position - reduces possibility of runout. Runout is a condition where a mechanical component doesn't rotate exactly in line with the main axis, and it should be minimised wherever possible. For example, maximum runout for the front or rear disc brakes is 0.15mm (0.0059 in) as per the factory service manual. 2) After removing diff drain plug, inspect for metal fragments stuck to the magnet that can indicate wear, e.g. of the differential or axles. If diff drain plug is not magnetic, replace with a magnetic plug, which are readily available. 3) After cleaning the spindle on the axle housing, inspect the area where the seal runs for corrosion/damage. The rear spindle is part of the axle housing (not replaceable like the front spindles). If wear grooves or corrosion are significant, Terrain Tamer make a heavy-duty cassette style labyrinth oil seal, where the seal runs on itself rather than the spindle and can be used here. 4) When greasing the bearings, revolve the bearing on itself to ensure full coverage (sometimes air can pop out). 5) When adjusting new bearings, revolve the hub as well as moving back and forward. Additionally, to share an important response to a viewer comment - the car shown has the factory rear LSD, however if your 80/105 series has a rear locker, lock the differential to ensure both axles will be free to slide all the way back in on re-assembly. If not locked and axle is removed, some locking differentials have parts that may 'float' in the housing and block the axle shaft from being reinstated.

Mate, you have a gift with explaining clearly, the steps involved in doing the job, covering everything. I would like to see more videos of other repairs. Well done.

Thanks Rick, we really appreciate your kind feedback!

[@paullewis252]

This is probably the best video I've seen on this subject. Most others have either skipped bits or they have some area they have prep'd before. This video shows you how to actually do it in great detail. Keep up the good work and long live the 80 series !

[@alexmoranz8840]

Hey I know this comment is 2 years after the release but wanted to let you know I followed these steps exactly and bought all the same items from the video and did this job myself. I’m far from a mechanic, just like trying to learn new things on my 80 and I was able to get this done in 3 days. Snapped a bolt off in the knuckle housing and had to take it to a machine shop to get it removed but other than that smooth sailing. I also replaced my entire brake system along with this since I was stuck in there. Cannot thank you enough for this video, it’s absolutely perfect.

[@2ndGearLow]

Thanks Alex, we appreciate your feedback, and great to hear this video helped you to get the job done!

[@leighbaragwanath]

Excellent presentation throughout, Please don’t hate me for saying that releasing the wheel stand from under the car is not a smart thing to do. I know it has the wheel height, however there are guys that work on other lower cars that may just make that mistake. Only trying to assist with this comment. When I coat the gasket I use the plastic bag it came in as a matt, so it doesn’t make a mess & it helps to coat it evenly. Also when fitting the gasket its a lesson for young players to take your time and ease the gasket on & over the bolt threads on a clock face rotation. You can be very proud of what you have put together here & your other instructional videos, as they are clear & concise which them easy to follow and that offers confidence to anyone wishing to learn from a well tutored demonstration.

For those who have a weaker hand brake, now is a good opportune time to throw in some of them larger bone top plates, cheap eBay around $20 bucks. Shit easy to instal. They do give you a bit more grip to lever moment. Cheap necessary upgrade, I do believe. Top Aussie video, English I understand straight to the point-fella

Another great video, I recall someone using the old bearing race to reseat new bearing seal, with reducing bearing race diameter with saw cut to suit(fit over seal to tap in even)

[@2ndGearLow]

Thanks for watching! That's right, we actually demonstrate this method you've described in our 100 series front Wheel Bearings video, and made reference to that video when doing the 80 series front Wheel Bearings within the swivel hub rebuild. It does work, however it is much easier with the bearing and seal driver and I highly recommend them as a tool worth buying given the great variety of uses

The screws holding the lock nut in position were extremely tight in my case (I suspect they just got stuck over time after not being done for a while). I ended up needing an impact screw driver (the manual type that you hit with a hammer) to get them undone and needed to replace two screws due to partially stripped philips head, so I don't fully strip it next time. Toyota part number for the new screw is 42419-60011. Might be worth having spares handy, or having an impact screwdriver if you plan to complete the job in one go. Amazing video mate, love your work.

Hi Cam, thanks a lot for your feedback and letting us know how you went. Interesting to hear about the lock nut screws, I found they were reasonably tight too - great of you to provide that part number in case others need to replace the screws. Thank you

[@pochunlee]

Those two phillip screws are really hard to take out. I had to heat them with a torch in a can in order to loosen them. On first attempt, I had stripped one of the screws. Is there something wrong when it is this tight? Those screws look like they are lubricated.

[@2ndGearLow]

Thanks for watching! They can be quite tight, best to get your hands on an impact screwdriver in that case to try to loosen it without stripping the head. Also important to use the correct sized Phillips bit to reduce the chance of stripping. The screws are not lubricated, but there is a lot of grease around this area - we clean the screws up with brake & parts cleaner before reinstating

Hi 2nd Gear Low. if the Rear differential is an LSD. in a 4x4 does that mean both differentials are LSD? I have a Toyota Land Cruser 80 series, and the rear differential is an LSD can you help me. it has a sticker on the back differential use LSD oil only.

[@2ndGearLow]

Hi John, thanks for watching. We're not too knowledgeable on all international models, but here in Australia there were no factory front LSDs in the 80 series. Most 80 series came with open front diff and rear LSD, otherwise factory locked front and rear. The advantage of using an oil such as Castrol Axle Limited Slip 90 is that it's suitable for use in open diffs and LSDs, so you can use the same oil for front and rear if you have that set up. If you want to be sure, you can enter your 17-digit VIN (found on stamped plate in engine bay on firewall) into partsouq.com and navigate to the front axle / front differential exploded diagrams, which will show you what was installed in your specific vehicle. We use this website every time we work on cars, it's free to use and we highly recommend it, having been recommended to me by Toyota themselves. Hope that helps!

Hey mate, this video is awesome, the easy to view angles, step by step process, and even socket sizes and tools needed. Just wondering, can you recommend any of your videos for a wheel bearing change of a 1987 75's series troopy? I'm doing as much research and prep to do all four wheels/bearing sets in a couple of months. Just finished a Big Lap and want to do them all myself. Thanks a bunch! Cheers,

[@2ndGearLow]

Hey Jock, thanks a lot for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately this will be the closest video we have to that, as we don't have access to a 75 series. I can recommend a great resource though - partsouq.com. Pop your Troopy VIN in there and then you can see exploded diagrams of basically the entire vehicle, specific to your car, along with genuine part numbers. If you navigate to the "REAR AXLE SHAFT & HUB" diagram, you will see a visual representation of how it all fits together. For torque specifications and steps required, as well as oil and grease specifications, best to try to get your hands on a copy of the Toyota factory service manual if you can, which you may be able to find online. It looks like the Terrain Tamer kit for rear wheel bearings in your 1987 Troopy would be the WBK2 (drum brake models only) and you would use 1x kit per side. Hope that helps you out

[@jockbritten3262]

[@jockbritten3262]

@@2ndGearLow Hey guys! Thanks again for that. We do have the service manual, but it's in storage while we see my partners family in the UK. Just one quick question, the terrain tamer website says for HJ75 11/1984- there's one kit for front and then one kit for rear, but the actual kit is the same for both and says "drum brake models only on rear". Does that sound correct, that the same bearing kit would work for both front and rear? I do believe we have drum brakes on our rear wheels. Thank you again, and sorry if that's a really basic question. Cheers,

[@2ndGearLow]

No problem Jock, you're too kind! Yes I would trust what TT have on their website and that doesn't surprise me as it's a similar scenario for the 80 series too. I spoke to the staff there previously and they mentioned offering both the front and rear gaskets within one of the 80 wheel bearing kits so that it can be carried as a spare for either the front or rear (bearings are same front and rear, gaskets are different, on some models). You'll probably find you have extra gaskets in the kit if it's similar to the 80, that you can keep for the front axle

Toyota dealer just quoted me $1200 to replace wheel bearings. This is during and in addition to a job to replace rotors and pads. Any ideas why having the dealer do wheel bearings costs so much?

[@2ndGearLow]

Hi Ted, I'm not sure where you are based or what currency this is, but suspect a lot of that cost would be labour. If that is to do both front and rear wheel bearings (all four corners) that does not seem unreasonable, as where we are based in Australia Toyota mechanics are charged out at somewhere around $160 per hour, meaning you would only be getting around 1-2hrs per side once considering the inflated price they charge for genuine parts at dealerships too. We choose to pick up the genuine Toyota parts from Partsouq.com and pay international shipping, which still works out significantly cheaper than buying from Toyota Australia in most cases, and then install the parts ourselves

[@2ndGearLow]

Thanks Clark, great to see you having a go. You can purchase a proper spring tension gauge which is calibrated in the range specified (28-57N for the preload), for example from scientific stores. The gauge should be aligned as shown in the picture on screen, then pulled in the direction shown to measure the amount of force it takes to start the hub turning. Otherwise some people choose to use a fish scale or similar, which is essentially a spring gauge measuring in kg force, and then you can convert this kg force to N using 1kgf = 9.8N for example

Awesome teaching brother, thank you. Curious, if the FJ80's in Australia are any different than the U.S. FJ80 mechanically speaking? I have a 95 FZJ80 and about to start this project myself. Thanks for any info. Subscribed!

[@2ndGearLow]

Hi J R, thanks for subscribing, we really appreciate it! Over here in Aus we typically refer to the earlier 3FE model 80s as the FJ80, then the FZJ80 is the 8/1992 onwards 1FZ-FE model. There are some differences in trim levels offered in different regions, e.g. over here the top trim is 'Sahara', which comes with factory front/rear locking differentials among other things. There is also a VX trim in some regions which are largely similar to the Sahara. We also have a lot of diesel 80 series over here, with the most sought after being the 24-valve 1HD-FT later model turbo diesels, as these typically get much better fuel economy than the petrol FZJ80s. For the most part though, you should find the US spec FJ80 (1FZ-FE engine) to be the same as the one shown in the video, which is the 1997 GXL FZJ80 trim in Aus spec.
