Hilux full floating axles???

Post by luxembuger »

G'day, i'm wondering how others have achieved this. Mainly because of offset rims my bearings are flogging out all too often and I'm bored of replacing them... Has anyoe used the RROF kit?? I am already running a LC centre and just want to change the axles to floating... Cheers.

I haven't done it but 2 of the guys I wheel with have. They are on daily driver/trail rigs. They both said it was smoother on the highway with less vibration. Both run 37" tires.

Plus its fun to watch them try and climb over a big obstacle when someone has unlocked the rear hubs.

We can get them.
Brian is out of the flange adaptors for the kit. He told me he will have them machined up in a few weeks.
