    hub won't seat on stub axle

    Can you slide both bearings into place on the spindle without them being in the hub? This would tell you if the inside surface of the bearing is catching on the spindle. If it's not that it almost has to be that one of races is not seated properly or you have a defective/wrong race/bearing/seal.

    Dealer Frt Axle Service - 4k Later, Needs New Bearings

    I think you should press harder for warranty. It is almost certainly their fault and they know it.

    RTH BOISE: Hub separation @ speed

    I don't think birfs had anything to do with your failure. I bet it was just wheel bearing failure...but I'm surprised you didn't notice anything funny before it happened. Glad you ok.

    Dealer Frt Axle Service - 4k Later, Needs New Bearings

    What kind of warranty does the dealer have on their service? A long time ago I had a front wheel bearing fail soon after having a dealer repack them. They ended up picking up the tab on new bearings, a new spindle, and a new hub. Also, what are they going to charge $2000 for? I think you...

    Front end vibration

    You should give some more info. Does it do it during accel/decel? Does it come and go regularly? What kind of tires, how much lift, etc?

    There are no negative effects from removing the silencer. It just sounds a little different sometimes.

    Removing PS Pump

    I think it would be easier to undo the line with the pump still bolted in. Mine was really tight and I don't know how I would hold the pump steady if it wasn't bolted in place.

    Pulling T-case

    Mine came out pretty easy, but I did have to lower the crossmember a little to access some of the bolts. Getting it back in was a serious hassle. But I was doing it by myself with a floor jack. The problem is that it's a weird shape (and heavy). I ended up making a cradle for it out of some...

    rebuilder for power steering pump

    If I had to do it again I would just buy a new pump. For me, it was not extremely easy. I'm not aware of anyone you can send one out to rebuild.

    Re-torquing front hub nuts after Toyota dealer performed brake job

    You could pull the drive flanges off to see what the studs look like if you are worried about them. It only takes a few minutes to do that.

    Re-torquing front hub nuts after Toyota dealer performed brake job

    If you are talking about the nuts that hold the drive flange on, they don't have any impact on the rotor.

    Birf clicking - 4 questions

    To answer some of your questions: Loose wheel bearings shouldn't accelerate wear of the birf. If you are going to tear into one side I would do the other at the same time. Unless the other birf has already been replaced it is probably nearly as worn as the clicking one. How bad is the...

    Rear Wheel won't come off

    You mean you have taken the lug nuts off and the wheel won't come off? I usually find something heavy to knock it loose with, or you might be able to get a pry bar in there somewhere.
