Knuckle Rebuild Process Tech Information & FAQ - (opens in new window)

FAQ: Timken versus Koyo wheel bearings?

Which is better? Both are a fantastic bearing and due to customer demand for both options we stock them both. Timken bearings are made in the USA, Koyo bearings are made in Japan. Both are used OEM by Toyota in older Land Cruisers and various new models as well. We are 100% confident in either option for new and old Land Cruisers alike.

FAQ: Upgraded heavy duty inner axle seals?

All of our knuckle overhaul kits include the standard stock style seal. If you're looking for a heavy duty option due to extreme turn angles, worn seal surfaces on your inner axles or slightly untrue axle housings, Cruiser Outfitters stocks the Marlin Crawler Heavy Duty Eco Seal for all 1969-1997 Land Cruiser axles. See Part# FA35010MA. Purchase two for your axle overhaul.

FAQ: What else might I need in addition to the knuckle rebuild kit?

We have assembled these kits to contain everything needed for a standard knuckle overhaul, however there might be some items you consider purchasing for your particular rebuild. We have sold thousands of knuckle rebuild kits over the past 20 years and rebuilt hundreds of axles in our shop, we feel confident that our kits contain the right parts to do the job right the first time.

FAQ: Replacing/Rebuilding Your Birfield Joint?

Are you Planning to overhaul/replace or switch your birfield (outer axle joint) from one side to the other? If so, you will want to make sure to have the axle clips that go inside of the birf, they often break when removing the inner axle from the birf. See Part# FACL34005 for your application. Order 2 per axle.

FAQ: What tools will you need to complete the job?

At a minimum you will want to have a 54mm hub socket (Part# FA15007 fits all 9/1975-2007 disc brake axles) for your Land Cruiser axle work. Additionally you will need basic hand tools, a brass drift and a spring-scale gauge (Part# FASCALE) and snap ring pliers (Part# FASNAP). These additional items are all easy to source at your local auto parts store.
