<strong>So I guess I can drive it around without worrying it's going to drain too much? Well, that's good to know. Last thing I want to do is loose the fluid and wreck the gears.

I located a 4Runner axle at a different store in town. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helv, Helvetica, Sans">I think you're OK in that respect. If you haven't returned your core, you might be able to transfer it over from the damaged axle. I really don't know how it's attached. Definitely get a replacement axle with it, though. It keeps dust off of the seals/bearings.

Congrats on the finding the 4Runner axle, too bad you have to do it all over again <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

BTW, how long did it take you guys?
