Anyone know of a cheap source for the front knuckle rebuild kit for a 1985 toyota 4x4? I'm aware of Marlin's, AllPro, Downey, and NWOF... any others?

Thanks,
Ken

Very carefully... I actually had a stereo shop do it... they had a template which comes off the back wall in a triangular fashion. The speakers are basically touching the back of the seats. If I had it all over to do again, I would do something different. The box is really nowhere big enough for 12's. Not enough airspace to utilize their potential. 8's might be a better choice, or some type of tube (bazooka).

Sadly, Jim closed his shop and is now doing work for the Army on their vehicles. Full time plus, no cranky customers, more work than he can handle, no liability...

I should ping him sometime to see if he will cough up his supplier though because $75 beats $110 any weekday. But AllPro and Marlin are just fine and its not THAT much cheaper. And your money goes to support those who support us.

Try Liquid Offroad. I don't know what mini truck parts they carry but I got a complete rebuild kit for my FJ40, including Koyo knuckle bearings for $78.
