I enjoyed watching this as much as you made it enjoyable to watch. Amazing how you took control and completed the job in record time! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you sir for your video 👍 My son was quoted $1800 for this job 😬 Told him we can do it ourselves and save him lots of money by watching your video 😁 We have the tools and now we have the knowledge 🤓

Great job making this video, you answered a lot of the questions my dad had.

I am replacing the rear wheel bearings in a T100. Video answered a lot of my questions - thank you for posting.

Man you are super nice for what I see I just love the good humor you use to do mechanic jobs thats a great great to do it good job

You are very careful and cautious! I like that

I know this is old, but this video is funny- the speeding up of voice cracked me up,...and your humor is good lol Nice job👍👏

excellent video man, exactly what I was needing to fix my dad's truck. Thanks

Awesome vid man, very helpful. Keep em coming!

thanks for the tutorial broski, nice G shock watch !

Nice work my friend!! You covered all the important details of the job very well! Awesome video. Your editing is always the best!! Aloha!

yes a little grease on the o ring is good, it helps with preventing the o-ring from getting pinched between the two surfaces creating a proper seal. awesome video man

Hoping to use this information for my 2005 Toyota. Looks pretty straight forward. Good job.

Thanks for the video. I have to do this on my 1999 4Runner. Basically the same.

One suggestion, always remove the fill plug before draining a diff or transmission, you want to make sure you can fill it back up. If the fill plug gets strippedor you cant get it out, SOL Good vid btw

Well done Sir!!! Great editing... Aloha!

You are very well come I'm also the same way never stop smiling never what and praying that everything goes right ! Now that I see you doing mechanic jobs like it was a walk in the park eating ice cream now I know that I'm right about staying positive , yesterday I did my left rear bearing just like you show me in the video it's was totally helpful what you did in the vide I also took it to the machine shop and they charge me $95 for the bearing plus $45 for the abs ring in total was $140 dollars here in napa California 94559 I was very happy my friend I thank you one more time , THANK YOU Brother!

You really could use a lot of pointers, tips, and tricks, but THANK YOU for showing how it comes apart! *TIP:* (To stop brake fluid from dribbling non stop, DISCONNECT your BATTERY and then press the brake pedal down an inch or two, and PIN IT THERE. This will CLOSE the flow of brake fluid)

thanks this really helped out to know what im dealing with!

Awesome video super helpful!

Thanks for uploading the video, need to go tackle this now

thanks for making this video berry helpful

Bearings are of self-adjusting type. My new set of rear wheel bearings (SNR) had some play for adjustment as well.

Good Work✌️✌️

Great step by step video. I hope you have saved your receipts for those parts because I need the part #'s : o ring, seal, bearings, & breather (jiggle) valve. The #'s are more helpful at the auto parts because they are known by different names. I would greatly appreciate your help again. Thanks.

I took the rubber off the brake bleeder screw and slipped it over the disconnected brake line to stop the leaking during the repair, worked good.

Good, video, brah. Your slippah wen geev yo away. : ) Aloha.

hey brah great video. your shirt and slippah went seal the deal as one true Hawaiian mechanic. I'm currently doing the same thing and I hope this helps others, but I have a 2000 Tacoma v6 prerunner and just note that yours didn't have the abs ring as mine does and all that bearing and abs ring and axle seals have to be pressed off with a special tool. Also if you use a rubber mallet to hit the drum it will come off as well as opening the filler port on the diff fluid will get it to drain real fast. u did a awesome job and I look forward to other videos. mahalo braddah iworkforbudlight.

Thanks for taking your time to do this video! It looks like it will be a great help! Just wondering if you, or anyone else knows, is this a similar process for a 2001 Tundra LTD 2WD 4.7? I would assume so, but I just wanna make sure. Thanks Again!

i know its an old video but the chances of both seals leaking that bad are more likely to be the differential vent plugged causing pressure build up in the differential and pushing oil past the seals

oh my gosh i wish i could do this myself! i just found out my axle seals are leaking too. toyota charges an arm and a leg for anything they do. I had broken a spring under my seat for the airbag and toyota charged 115$ just to look at my truck and diagnose it [which all they did was plug in the computer to the data link read the codes] that took them about an hour and for 115$ then wanting 300$ for the new spring. stealerships are the devil.

You can use the lid off a can of Zyns as a cheap seal driver. I made a video on it! Definitely need to go slow and make sure it’s going in straight

Im doing this soon. It will be my first time to do it. And ill definitely be watching this again. Thanks for the video, great job on the editing too.

You give it a good shake when the tires are still bolted to the vehicle in case it does fall off the Jack, you don't damage the vehicle and you can then reposition the Jack and stand properly. If you do it the way you did it, the vehicle will be on the floor with no way to reposition the Jack and you possibly damaged something as it hit the ground.

it is really easy with a piece of exhaust pipe or a really big socket

Never install a seal dry, you should have lubed the axle seal in the oil it will be sealing.

Thanks !

I have a 91 Toyota previa that my rear axle seal is leaking. Never done this but looks easy enough. I don't have the bearing press or removal tool. How much did they charge you to take old bearings out and press new ones in.

You have part numbers for the new parts you replaced? And will this work on 04 3.4V6 Tacoma?

AURYTE !!!! You da man cuz in out done.....Supah

I hope you checked the Breather (jiggle) valve on the top of the differential. The "pressure" you noted, was the reason the seals failed. This has been a common problem, since the 80s with Toyota Rear drive axles. Just an FYI

Thanks for the video, I just put a 3 inch lift in my 4runner and noticed both axle seals are leaking and need new cv axles . Now to start on mine . I was wondering if you used synthetic fluid on the diff?

Amazing job on the video, this was very informative and will help solve my problem. I have the same problem on my 01 tacoma. The passenger drum has some rear axle fluid in it. Did you press out the bearings on your axles? I'm sure I gotta do the same thing on bearings and the o-ring, and seal.

Great video and the ONLY tacoma one out there ! ... I have Just gotten my parts and getting ready to tackle this on my 07 tacoma my 1 question is the seal in the axel housing do you have a part number ? I got a seal but it looks like the front seal by the spindle ,,,thanks

Great video! What kind of shop did you use to get the new bearings pressed in?

The slight movement in that bearing is normal. On all 85+ 4runners and taco's that share that axle are all the same.

The o-ring doesn't hold in the oil, it just keeps dirt away from the seal.

yes that is wear either on the bearing or the Axel I would change the bearing and see if it fixes it

nice video,can you tell us what kind of differential oil you used?thank u so much for the video.

Is it possible to just remove the axle and replace the axle seal if you know that is leaking? Or is replacing the bearings necessary and that would just be a bandaid on a bigger problem? Ultimately, I know my axle seals are leaking, but I have no indication the wheel bearings are bad. I don't necessarily want to replace everything else if that isn't necessary.

Did you ever determine if it was the outer seal (the one shown at 9:50) which was leaking? Did the guys who replaced your bearings replace that seal when you took it to them? Or can that one be done yourself? Great video man, I'll be using it as reference as I tackle this project in the next couple weeks! Aloha

remove fill plugs before removing drain plugs

very surprised that the mast cylinder did not fail on you. Whoever was pumping the brakes for you needed to slow it down. Thats a good way to kill a master. Slow pumps, dont go to the floor unless you are holding the pedal to bleed it. Other than that, a GREAT video.

I was wondering if the same procedure would work for a 05 Sequoia. What differences might there be if you know. thanks for your help.

Thanks...:)

This looks a lot easier than axle for a Nissan frontier

Where did you have the axles sent to? And what exactly did they do wherever you sent them? I have this same problem with oil leaking onto the rear brakes 06 Tacoma rwd. I was hoping to just change the seals.

I'm right in the middle of the same job and I can't get the brake nut to feed back into the cylinder. Did you have the same issue? It is being very difficult.

Great video, do you think this will work on a 94 truck? Every thing looks almost the same for as I can see.

@ iworkforbudlight...how much did it cost to have the axle bearings press

Nice work! I guess toyota is toyota so it's kind of the same prosedure on a 2008 tundra..? Regards Bjørn from Norway..🙂

flip-flops and pants rolled up

I have to change the same axle seal on my 4Runner soon and this video was very helpful. Thank you. One question: Is it necessary to replace the brake pads just because they are greasy? My brake pads and drum got greasy from the leak but after cleaning with brake cleaner, they seem fine. Am I missing something? Thanks..

You sound local haha what island maybe?

do you know what the part behind the seal is called and is it removable, mine is messed up.

good video now i don't feel too bad paying dealer 300 for parts and labor to do this.

going to tackle this myself. how much was it to get the bearings pressed?

Informative video, but a lot of “I’m not sure comments” . First time for me so it makes me a little Leary. Do appreciate it though.

Easy :)

I think the 2nd Gen Tacoma rear end is similar

just hit the drum inbetween the lugnuts and it will pop free every time

13:55

Check your air vent clean it out it gets clogged up causing it to leak it the pads

Next time try just giving the drum a smack with a hammer. I've never had to jack screw them off, few good taps and it usually breaks the shoes free and slides off.

pressure in read diff check your vent problably nothing wrong with the seals.

I know this video is old but heck yeah that's a bad bearing lol. I hope they were replaced when you did this. In fact a bad bearing can cause oil seal failure, it may not have even been the breather being clogged just the bearing vibration can do that

O if your really good you can just pop the seals with a pry bar

I just did this to my 98 Tacoma. Had been running over sized General Grabbers and the vibration did not help the fact

Yes that’s why the seal is leaking.

24mm

no more seals videos can we get one that helps us out with changing the whole front axle differential on a gmc yukon denali xl meaning whole front differential

If I were you, I put the brakes release rubber piece to cover brakes line and stop leaking for brakes fluid.

Only problem is that I typed in how to do the FRONT seal and all I got was rear seal videos.. figured!! Ughh 🤷‍♂️

I can tell you from Hawaii

Yip you have side to side wear on your bearing

El palier tiene un orificio extra para poder aflojar el tornillo incómodo

0:55 let it down slowly...😂😂😂😂 Oops

to the man that made this video I can make ur life a hole lot easier I know a lot of tricks to make ur life easier and it will be easier to explain also

You got your wheel chick on backwards.

8:34 deez nuts

Let it down slowly :-), ok

Can you do mine for a beer? ;)

*NOTE* Take off the rear differential fill cover before draining the fluid....thank me later

4:03 "just to be safe, I'm going to change.." my flip flops for real shoes yo?

\the reason your first seal failed is cause you didn't pack it with grease!

Should have removed your fill plug first.

i cant even watch this.. your wheel chocks are bacwards fail hahahaha
