Marlin seal feedback (1 Viewer)

[FF LC FREAK]

I called marlin and they said it will not fit in a 40 axle only a 60 axle... why would this be i just want to know why... i ordered just oem ones because its not a huge deal to me but wish i could have had them...

Well, this is directly from their website:

"Our New Heavy Duty Inner Axle Seals are designed by Marlin Czajkowski of Marlin Crawler and are an exclusive Marlin Crawler product. Current applications include all 1979-1985 Toyota Hilux 8" Front Axles, and all 1969-1/1990 Landcruiser front axles including FJ40, FJ45, FJ55, FJ60, and FJ62."

They fit just fine in my 71 fj40. I don't know who you talked to, but it would seem they are wrong since I and others have installed them in fj40 axles.

Good luck!

Edit: pbg you beat me by a minute!

Installed a set on my 76 disc brake axle rebuild / conversion. Had the original OEM ones that came with the knuckle kit. The Marlins look a little heavier and installed easy. Im doing a complete frame off resto so the truck has not moved since I installed them... So far 3 months - Zero miles and no leaks...
