Well yesterday night I installed the Aisin hubs I found in the bone yard. I found them on a 1987 Toyota pickup. Took the hubs home. Parts cleaner and with the printed break down,(link I found posted here) was able to clean them up like new. Went to the dealer and ordered parts from a 1990 4 Runner free wheel hub gaskets and o-ring. Would'nt you know all the parts are the same. The hubs bolted right up to my 1997 T100, AWESOME
I modified the wheel center caps by drilling around the center grove by the toyota emblem. Removing the circle and cleaning up the edges of the circle with a die grinder until it fit around the hub and locked into the wheel. Looks like factory.!!!
I can't thank the people enough who shared the info. about the AISIN hubs. Installation went without a hitch <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Glad to hear someone else did this. It is a very no-nonsense mod that allows your T to function as normal or reduce some wear on the 4x4 components.



You mean like this:

Hey Honger How did you take a picture of my front wheel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks cool I have the exact same rims

Or this?

I still feel all warm and fuzzy inside after ripping out my vacuum crap, locking in my front axle and installing some Aisin hubs. My friends think I flipped when I show them the "octopus" that I ripped out, until I explain what I did. Then they think it's crazy that it was made like that in the first place!
