Rebuilding the rear differential in a 4th gen 4runner. This 2005 Toyota 4Runner Sport is a 2 wheel drive but the 4×4 version should be the same. I show how I rebuild Toyota rear differentials using specialized tools. this can be done without the tools I use but takes longer. The Toyota Tacoma should have the same 3rd member unless it has the E-locker option.

So I'm new to this but I didn't see you use any shims now I'm lost
you can use dry ice or just put the rings in a freezer
Hate those damn crush sleeves horrible design everything should come with a solid spacer from factory
Would this be a similar process for a 1994 Toyota Pickup 2.4L 4 x 4?
hey, my outer bearing ring is still moveable after tightening the screws of the bearing caps. is this normal or should this clamp the bearing ring in place?
Muy buen video no ablo inglés pero entiendo lo que está haciendo mi gracias amigo
Hay what’s the part number for your spanner wrench it looks pretty cool
Definitely a job I'll pay a shop to do – I'd have to buy more tools to do this than it would cost me to pay someone to do the job!
Any gaskets etc needed??? in removing and replacing a rear end differential assembly on the fourth generation Toyota 4runner?
I like your channel I have subscribed
I rebuilt my toyota 7.5 and installed a locker back when i was in community college 2015 automotive service technology. I forgot how i did it. This video refreshed my memory. I want to change my ring and pinion gears, can i reuse the bearings that i replaced years ago? Do i need new crush sleeve and shims?
nice info !!!
My 2005 Toyota 4runner was making a loud noise I found out it was 2 of the gears that broke in it
This vehicle looks like it lived it's life in the desert…like brand new underneath!
I just have to replace that front pinion oil seal.
Am I going to be able to get that front pinion off, w/out complete disassembly? (after removing the castle nut)
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing . Greetings from Curacao.
do you remember the torque specs for the third member drive line bolts axle bolts ?
Im glad i found your video, my buddies been wrenching on heavy equipment, semis, dump trucks, trucks, cars, boats for 40 years or more. I told him i needed my differential bearings replaced and asked if he had the right tools to do it. He asked what tools? I said well to set the pre tension, the paste to check gear spacing the stuff i saw guys using on utube videos. He just laughed at me, said if i wasn't changing gears he didn't need the high dollar crap. He said you do it by feel if you know what your doing lol. Watched your video and i feel better about having him do it now.
thank you for sharing. i will now speak to my mechanic like a pro
