i saw them put that kit on Zuk on Extreme 4x4, has to be better than decent.
True, ive never seen a koyo bearing failure, Though I have broken trail jizz bearings. I had 25 year old koyos in my old rig on 40's, never beat on it too bad, but it made it though some of the harder trails in AZ without issue. BUT, I used a trail jizz rebuild kit in my 85's front axle, after 1000 miles and 6-7 medium trails on 35's the drivers upper bearing was broken and the TG tie rod ends were worn really bad for such little use... I now have marlins 25mm kit, arms, and rod ends on both rigs.Anyone that I have seen in person break a trunion bearing was due to trail jizz bearings or steering arms, only seen one guy break an allpro 17mm pin, but he was running jap bearings and he BEATS hit rig... 250hp turbo motor and 37in sticky crawlers...
you mean between the kingpin and the seat?
Crazy. I hate trunion bearings. Ive broken koyo and nachi. People are seriously saying koyos dont break? Ive pulled apart countless STOCK axles, wih 31s or 33s, to see the top bearing on the driver side fall to pieces, MANY times. I will say that koyos "look" like they are the better brand, but nachi hd ones seem to work better for me. I was gonna do the trun elim kit, but I got marlin arms on my runner and didnt wnna combine marlin part with tg. I broke a MARLIN steering pin, no even wheeling hard, smash, took out my upper and lower trun, toasted em. Ive broken prob 10- trunion bearings so far, I dont wheel my runner anymore, but my ex cab is getting this tbe kit very soon. I have not read about a SINGLE failure with the tbe kit.
