i'm finding it's cheaper to buy a new axle rather than buy a new wheel bearing, and have a shop do the press and all the related costs.

my question is i have seen contradicting info on ifs rear axle widths. pirate faq says 58" 86-95 and i forget where but they said coil sprung rear axles were 1/2" wider at 58 1/2". i want to buy a 90 4runner rear axle and pull the brake assembly and axle and just slide it into my 88 rear housing.

am i off my rocker? who knows the truth?

But then you will still have old wheel bearings...
I recomend reading the "HATE THE CONCRETE!" theory of bearing removal...it is on the board somewhere! It is entertaining and informative!

yes i would have a used bearing still but i would have a spare. if the axle shafts are 1/4 inch longer each side are they gonna fit anyways, or would i be fuct?
