In this video I build a set of long travel CV axles for my 2006 Sequoia. I use OE Toyota parts and chromoly axle shafts from MCM Fab.
These can be very expensive if you have someone build them for you.
My axles are +3.5" but this process will work for axles of any length.

Nothing like a home brew tech video with a dryer rolling in the back ground. Good Stuff!! Thank You!!
Yessir I do laundry the side does dishes
God bless you , your family and business.Thank you very much for passing on your wonderful knowledge ... Fellow 1st Gen Sequoia owner 👍
Thank you for the well wishes!
I'd be willing to buy some lt axles fabed up by you, could be something you guys could do on spare time for some extra cash. I know my limitations this exceeded the level of patience I have! Great video.
Send me an email if you're interested we'll make it happen!
Love it! Your rig is pretty rowdy!
Thanks yours looks dope from your profile pic
Hell yeah! Off Road sounds better 🤘
Thanks I think so too man
I'm glad I had someone else to do mine. LOL. I have a feeling I would have thrown mine across the shop eventually.😅
I was thinking we could probably meet somewhere. I could come that way. Unless you just want to come to Arizona. Whenever you get tired.
Still waiting to hear back from the marketing manager at summit about doing my Walk around video.
I almost gave up the first time I did it too
Congratulations Finn on your new shop.
Thanks so much my man it's been a blast!
Take a chunk of pipe the axle fits inside then set it in there and bang it on the floor to pop that compression ring.Then the weight of the shaft and the impact normally gets them apart quickly.
Yeah that's what Total Chaos also said to do. I must have slammed that pipe on my concrete floor over 20 times and nothing happened!!! 😡😡😡
The pipe was a few inches longer than the shaft right?
although my truck is an F150 the ONLY way to get that outter off was by cutting the axle. No matter how much smacking and slamming I did it took a cut off wheel
@@JW-cn6op 😆 yes...yes it was
Thank god overlanding is 💤😴 jk fast and smooth hahhaa
Haha yeah it definitely can be. I still love it but offroad where it's at!
Thank you for filming this!
You're welcome I couldn't believe it wasn't on the TH-cams yet!
@treehouseoffroad Im getting ready to build my first set of LT axles for a tundra. Assuming everything is in proper working condition, and the grease is good, is there any reason you couldn't just pop the ends off, pop them back on the extended mid shaft, add a little grease, and run it, without taking the cage apart and reassembling it?
Btw, hope the new business is keeping you busy!
Was that you last Sunday on 126 towards Santa Clarita? If yes! Awesome, if not, your sequoia has a twin sister! Keep up the good work!
Definitely not I was in Massachusetts last Sunday, must've been my doppelganger
Can I use these on a 95 Tacoma 4wd Manuel hubs ? With a 3.5” Long travel kit
Negative, very different axles
Ur a good pic for her too doing the laundry while u work on ur axles lol
I chose laundry over dishes I HATE WASHING DISHES!
@@treehouseoffroad ur previous axles had machine work from the company in Missouri for additional angle ..was it the same work u just did to the inner joints of ur long axles? That inner joint collar removal?
@@DonaldReynoldsII My previous axles were just remans from CVJ in Denver. They did not come with the lip cut off
I tried looking for the price for that extended axle from mcmfab but couldn't find it. How much was it,
They were 700, I called the number on the website and ordered them by phone
@@treehouseoffroad thank you. I ordered a set of used lca for 100 bucks. Can't wait to do this.
I'm having a hard time trying to find RCV axles for first gen Sequoia.. they have them but I'm looking for a 3.5 and I'm not sure if the ones they have on their site are correct..
Your best bet is to give them a call, that way you get exactly what you need the first time.
@@treehouseoffroad yeah I was thinking that I think they do make them custom
U runnin stock spindle knuckles with welded on gussets? Or something else? Im on my 3rd pair already. Only the 1st set i broke didnt have gussets but twice sftee i hadem strapped. They're costly to replace & they less girthy than the tacomas....LMK!!!
Mahalos 🤙🏾for the vids.
Stock spindles with gussets yup. Crazy you're on your 3rd pair lol
I’m planning to purchase a first fen with in the next week or two. Would you assemble and ship out these extended axles ???
Email me if you're serious treehousephin@gmail.com
while in madagascar i saw a man rebuild a cv axle on the side of the road when it broke. you do some African level work; your business will do very well. did you give a carbon fiber drive shaft any more thought?
African level work? That may be the nicest but definitely the weirdest compliment I've ever received, thank you!!!
Carbon fiber drive shaft is a no-go for me. I've scraped and dented my drive shaft multiple times and I can only imagine if it was carbon fiber I may have been dead in the water.
You know whats strange?when I bought my total chaos 2.5 long travel kit. They made me buy the CV axles separate...
Yup every single company does that. Must be for some legality reason I'm not sure
@@treehouseoffroad also those King 2.5 shocks for the rear do not fit the Sequoia because of the bypass reservoir that's why they broke the mechanic that initially started working on my truck installed them he should have never done that. I went down there the other day and the other mechanic showed me that they didn't fit no matter which way you turn them. So total chaos needs to revamp their long travel kit for the Sequoia and what it is is pretty much the same kit they sell for the 4Runner she didn't bother to tell me that I needed to dual shocks in the front. So if you know anyone that wants to buy a total chaos long travel kit for a Toyota Sequoia. They're going to need to do some modifying. Why would she tell me it needs a DualShock and not included in the kit .. really kind of disappointed with total chaos.. although they are awesome. They have obviously never installed it on a Sequoia. So now we are just going to relocate them outboard.. I figure if you ever come out to Arizona we could go do the back way to crown King. I'm sure you've heard of that trail. It's pretty famous people come from all over just to do it. It starts in Phoenix and goes all the way to crown King it's a small mining town between Prescott and Phoenix. But if you don't want to do that I know the other ones we can do.
@@treehouseoffroad sorry for the long-winded text I ate some mushrooms. I grow them for my own mental health. I don't eat a lot and I don't do it to get high I only eat like half a gram for anxiety depression and PTSD way better than anyting the VA or my psychiatrist has given me. I don't have to take it everyday like other medications I only do it once or twice a month and I haven't had an outburst of anger or been upset in almost 2 years. And if you take niacin which I believe it is B3 along with it it counteracts the psychedelic effect and you don't feel it so it's like taking a Tylenol but you still get the medicinal value. I do smoke marijuana and I don't drink at all those are the only things that I do.
Is it necessary to take off the lip of the inner joint? Or is it optional if you’re only using it for overlanding purposes or mild off-road? Also I heard people leave a part of the inner boot on the lip and just cover it up with the Porsche boot
It's all about articulation, the more the better imo. It's very easy to do, are you hesitant for some reason?
I think leaving part of the inner boot is for the 4runner style joint that isn't round. The trimmed inner boot provides a round surface to clamp the 930 boot to.

Can we team up
What u got in mind?
