What the title says. Just want to make sure the axle roll back or something like that. Seems easy enough to do. My bushings are shot.
 
Chock the wheels and do them one at a time, pretty easy
This is what I was wondering. Seems like a silly question, I know. OEM or is there a good aftermarket one out there? I haven't found one yet. Thanks!

All about the Benjamins baby... I will go with a beefier setup when I replace mine, stock are tiny.

I saw those! I did not realize we had upper trailing arms too....shows how much I apid attention under there when pressure washing it LOL. I may go with these or just replace the bottom ones for now to get rid of the clunk and save up for these. I have some other things to address.....UCAs, UBJ, and such.....basically all of it except LBJs for now.
 
I use all Toyota parts for my 80 series. I can't really afford to do that to two Land Cruisers and a Sequoia. I replaced my rear control arms with Moog. We'll see how long they last. I put the frame on stands and took the entire rear suspension off, except the axle (which I held in place with a jack and stands, when needed). It was pretty easy. Just pay attention to the orientation of where cables/hoses connect to the arms when you take them off. And don't mix up the bolts/nuts. They're the same size, but two different types.

Appreciate the input. I'll report back. I'll order them tonight.
