This is why I respect general automotive mechanics. At the dealer they see the same thing every day, with special tools and repetitive work flow. Here you needed to make your own tools, accepting all the risk of doing something you haven't seen done before. Well done, excellent editing as well.

Love that tool, real life saver. There's another way to get those pesky bearings out. You pop the seal off the bearing and punch the cage out with a punch between the balls. Working back and forth, the cage eventually brakes and you can pull the pieces out. Slide all the balls to one side of the bearing and place the axle shaft in a vise horizontal. Grab the backing plate at the top making sure all the balls of the bearing are at the bottom and pull. There will be enough movement and gap in the bearing to extract one of the balls. Once this happens the rest of the balls come out easy. The axle shaft will slide out. Then take a small cutting wheel and tool and cut a grove in the inner bearing race and caller being careful not to cut into the axle shaft. Cut just deep enough about halfway through and strike with a chisal and hammer on the cut. The race and caller will crack at the cut and slide off. Then take the inner bearing race and reassemble the bearing with 5 balls and spread them evenly in both inner and outer race. Flip over backing plate and drive the bearing out. I done alot of them like that but that tool you made is really nice.

Thank you Clifford, This is a true old school way to do bearings! I did mine today and your description was on the money! Thank you! Not going to spend cash on tool, bought truck new in 1989 and this 2nd bearing will probably be the last it will need.

Great video! I just did this on my 3rd gen 4runner last year and the press tool made all the difference. I would just like to add that when you do the seals, it's always a good idea to replace the seal ring that presses on to the axle at the same time. Its cheap insurance to prevent rework. Sometimes if the seal ring has a "witness mark" from the old seal it it can cause new seals to leak due to the seal ring being worn. Yours looked okay in the video though. Its also a good idea to grease fit the seal to the seal ring to make sure that the seal ring is pressed on far enough for the seal to ride in the center of the seal ring. For ABS axles is should be around 5mm. Overall, awesome job! I always look forward to watching you work. You always put in the work and not buy your way out by having someone else do it or throw parts at the problem.

Thank you Austin! Great video, well done and very well explained. Thank you for your time and explanation of what you were doing and passing it on to others. What year is your green toyota truck you are working on? Great job, I am doing this exact job on 3 trucks right now. 1986 1st gen 4 runner, 1985 toyota pick up and 1997 T100. We have owned the 1985 since new. I used to work for toyota and that is all I own, also having a 2004 Avalon, 1998 Tacoma and a 2021 Tacoma. It looks like a Used car lot in front of my house, lol. I watched the 1st video where you pounding the bearing out, I tried that, lol. Kicked my butt! But I am a 60 yr old retired after 31 years Army Helicopter pilot, not the man I used to be! God bless and keep the vids on these old trucks coming! You, RM Garage, and 6 Gear Garage are doing a great job on these videos. Once again thank you for sharing and taking the time to do these videos!!!!!

Check out the HF air over hydraulic jacks to use converting your press. Did my home built 50 ton two or three years ago and it really makes a difference. I use the hand control and installed a foot control as well. Several YT channels showing it. Next I want to put a gauge on it to register the force used. Allows you to free up your hands for positioning the part.

Nice tool, but not necessary for this kind of job. I was build a tool pretty similar to yours, but it did not work in my case under 20 ton press. I don't know why. Then I just took an angle grinder and made a cut on that collar very carefully. After hitting it a few times with a hammer it cracks down and fell off. To install a new collar I just heat it with the propane torch until it becomes dark-red and drop it down to the bearing. It fits perfectly in that way. Nice projects. Good luck!

Terrific, clean work. Now to spill the beans: that tool is equivalent to mounting the axle+backing plate into an empty junk axle housing. You cut out enough of the center cover of the housing to mount a small bottle jack within, on the same axis as the axle. Mount the axle to the housing, press out the axle from within using the jack. Boom, done-zohs. I will be doing this a second time soon using the same notched housing that sat under my house since twelve years ago the last time I did the job. But let's be honest, watching the rest of the world demonstrate the "bash it on the ground till you mushroom your splines and warp your backing plate" is why I live in America. #USA

My ex could never understand why I hold onto one use tools, even tools that are not even needed for my rig. I would just keep telling her it just makes things easier if you have the right tool for the job. I thought about making something like that in the past, just have to get the actual press to complete the final result. You should think about a little anti seize on all metal contact points when doing brake shoes, including the park brake arm, adjuster arm, and the adjust after you completely clean it. And actual grease is not recommended on braking systems.

The noise is also only most prevalent when slightly on the gas, if you push and unpush the gas from that position you can hear it come and go. I'm wondering what made you decide to replace the wheel bearing? Were you experiencing some kind of related issues or just figured it was time to do.
