This is the best bearing repack video on the tube, thanks for sharing and I’ll have to buy one of those spindle greasers now 👌🤠. Great work by the camera person as well 😎👍👍. Cheers Shad
Best video yet I’ve seen and in watching this it gave me the confidence to do my own front wheel bearings!! Keep up the good work mate got myself a spindle greaser for the maintenance routine 👍🏼👍🏼
Brilliant tips and hints. I’ll be ordering the 3xf kit and stud tightener. (Still haven’t used my spindle greaser yet but gearing up to do all 4 corners on the Troopy
This is the best ever detailed video ever made full of great tips thanks for sharing such gold info and video for the community, Do you have same for rear too?
Great video mate, thanks for sharing. while I have done many a front end rebuild and bearing re-packs, I certainly learnt a few things from you. I support your thoughts on excess grease in the hub cavity, every re-pack I have ever done is exactly the same- perfectly good grease just sitting there. I'll be suing it as a water resistance mechanism from here on.
@@sharpetoolingaustralia114 Yes it sure will. I will be doing this on the weekend so will help a lot thanks. Also didn't know about the spindle bearing either
Thanks Red Rocket. I have another video named ‘Spindle Greaser Information’ which has all the answers to your questions. Link is below. th-cam.com/video/KmMCR9sGXRE/w-d-xo.html
I think you'll find that if the void between the bearings is not full of grease, grease within the bearings can migrate out of the bearings into the empty void. being full stops the grease from migrating. at least that's my experience on industrial equipment with a similar design. excellent video BTW, I'll be using it when I do my bearings soon on my 79 series
Gday Bonza, thanks for the comment. Toyota’s procedure says to put grease in the void but I have never seen that grease fo anything but just sit there for the service interval. Some grease there is ok but yes too much is of no real good use. Cheers
As an older tech I have done a million tapered sets in all kinds of vehicle. I also own and have owned many Land Cruisers. I have never seen the inner nut torque at 59 nm. I know the outer is around that, but 45 ft lbs on a tapered bearing seems very high. The only tapered bearings I've seen with that kind of torque are sets the use a shim stack for preload. Do you have a link to the toyota service info that specifies this? Maybe I have been doing it wrong for decades.
Other sites show being torqued to 59 nm then spinning the hub forward 10 times then back 10 times, then loosen the nut and re-torque to 6 nm. (Apparently the 59 nm torque and spinning forward and back settles the bearing into their correct location.)
Love the video, very descriptive. Curious on this too, I’m new to it so I could be wrong but when I read the manual, I’ll paste below, it sounds to me like it should be right at aprox 5nm “ 22 Install the wheel bearing adjusting nut and adjust the bearing preload as follows: A. Tighten the adjusting nut to 59 Nm, rotate the hub several times in each direction and then loosen the adjusting nut until the nut can be turned by hand. B. Repeat step a. C. Tighten the hub nut to a torque of 5.4 Nm. D. Install a spring gauge to one of the wheel studs and measure the effort required to start turning the hub, the effort required to start turning the hub. The effort should be between 26 - 52 N. If necessary, rotate the adjusting nut until the turning effort is as specified. “ What are your thoughts on that?
Also when greasing spindle with your greaser, shouldn't you use the same great as is inside of your knuckle which probably would be molygrease? By using that wheel bearing grease you are mixing 2 together. Just asking.
Gday Onrej. Mate I couldn’t agree more! That is why I use and recommend INOX MX8 PTFE grease. It covers all the greasing needed for a 4x4 and yes I use it inside the CV too as recommended by the supplier. No more mixing of grease types!
hey do you still see no issues with running nulon extreme grease for bearings & CV's etc im just trying to simplify things and only carry one type of grease? ive got RCV 300m axles & CVs in my 105 just dobnt know if i should be running moly grease in CV, ive just bought your spindle greaser and would prefer just using nulon extreme for everything in the hub.
Thanks Adam. That was a great straight forward explanation. I have been researching different options for doing this job a including the spindle greaser. How long have you been using it and when you pull it down to maintain the cv, what is the condition of the bush and is it full of grease. Keep up the good work.

@@sharpetoolingaustralia114 Yes thank you I have watched all your Landcruiser vids and your tools look great. I am reconditioning my 80s front axle with new CVs, bearings & seals. I will have greaseable CVs and will get one of your tools for greasing the bush and all should be good. I will have to post on the numerous Landcruiser FB sights I am on. I will also get a set of 3xfiner for when I maintain the rear axle.
hello. sorry but did you replaced the wheel bearing with a new one or not? I have the problem with my LC100 and looking for a replacement for it is quite impossible in my country. if i clean the old one or have it serviced just like how you did it, would it be fine? thank you!
True but my bearings are always perfect when I repack them, never come loose and the temps remain low I use a laser temperature gun and have checked them on hot day’s running across the Nullarbor and they are sweet. Set your preload to you own liking mate!
Well done mate, you are a natural educator. Keep up the vids and excellent work camera lady, great footage. 👍🏽👍🏽
excellant work done sir.❤from rana ashfaq city sargodha pakistan.

Thanks Shar, yes she does a good job on the camera!
Best demo I have ever watched, thanks for talking through everything and explaining the ‘why’ also. Much appreciated
Great video. Hubby and myself are doing this today. 79 series tray back.
Good job mate well explained and filmed video need more people like you on youtube keep it up

Excellent, thorough video chief, appreciate your effort
Well presented, best I could find, cheers.
Excellent presentation ol mate love your videos and learnt a lot thanks heaps
Cheers Jason, all the best on the tracks mate
This video is excellent! Very helpful and lots of good info! THank you sr! Keep up the good work!
Excellent explanation on how to do this, it certainly helps me...well done!
Too easy mate! I’m glad it could help!
Very well explained. Top job
Great detail on the job. I share the same taste in ice cream - Golden North Honey ice cream is my favourite and the Blue Ribbon is not bad either
Nothing wrong with some Golden North!
Excellent video

59 Newton meters sounds like a lot for the inner nut, is that correct?
Yeah mate 49 or 59 it’s all about the same, rear bearings are set to that so why not the front?
Far to high.
Love the video, very descriptive.

What are your thoughts on that?
Great vid can ya do one on rear wheel bearings
Great vidios. Would love to get a pair of those circlip pliers but I can't find them anywhere. Would love to here from you about this
Cheers Rick
Hi. Can you post more informations about that stud installing tool please?
hey mate what torque for the hub studs? 1991 75 series 6 wheel nuts, leaf front and rear.
Also when greasing spindle with your greaser, shouldn't you use the same great as is inside of your knuckle which probably would be molygrease? By using that wheel bearing grease you are mixing 2 together. Just asking.

@@sharpetoolingaustralia114 what about mixing it with diff oil? 🤔 I know that moly is mixing well, that is why is used in knuckles.
Ondřej Marko mixing what with diff oil?
If the oils seal fails it needs an over haul!
hey do you still see no issues with running nulon extreme grease for bearings & CV's etc im just trying to simplify things and only carry one type of grease? ive got RCV 300m axles & CVs in my 105 just dobnt know if i should be running moly grease in CV, ive just bought your spindle greaser and would prefer just using nulon extreme for everything in the hub.
That’s what the grease is designed for.
To do everything.
Works well!
@@sharpetoolingaustralia114 cheers i thought so and i know youve been running your CVs for a number of years in it or L80 equivalent. cheers

Red Rocket yeah mate they don’t miss an opportunity
32:46 is the sound in my room as I watched this video
😂😂😂 far out you are nasty🤣
You must be using the wrong grease
hello. sorry but did you replaced the wheel bearing with a new one or not? I have the problem with my LC100 and looking for a replacement for it is quite impossible in my country.
if i clean the old one or have it serviced just like how you did it, would it be fine? thank you!
Hi, you will need in inspect the bearing for damage and make the decision based on that.
Yes I did re use my old bearing as it was ok
Your final preload of 59 Nm is to high.
True but my bearings are always perfect when I repack them, never come loose and the temps remain low
I use a laser temperature gun and have checked them on hot day’s running across the Nullarbor and they are sweet.
Set your preload to you own liking mate!
