I snapped the bolts and retaining pins which bolt the axel to the rear right wheel hub. Should I...

Anyone got a right rear hub lying around ?

Re: 60 Series Rear wheel hub - fix or get 2nd hand?
Personally I'd be going the larger 100 series 10mm stud upgrade. I done it on my old 60 after snapping both sides twice!!! Didn't help having a 6.2 V8 diesel at the end of the loud pedal tho!!! Quite easy to do, just go to Toyota spareparts and buy 12 x 100 series 10mm studs with cone washers + nuts, buy a tap to suit if you havn't got a set(can't remember what thread it is off the top of my head. M10 x 1.25 maybe, but don't quote me).foodie wrote:I snapped the bolts and retaining pins which bolt the axel to the rear right wheel hub. Should I...

Pull the old studs out if not already removed and drill the holes out to the correct size according to the tap(they usually state what size drill bit to use for each size tap) locktite the new stud in and ... voila... stronger rear studs!! Would also be worth getting the locating pins relocated too... try buying these from toyota and drilling a hole with the axle on the hub, just in a different positon than it was previously... make it slightly smaller too. I think they are a 6mm pin, so maybe drill them 5.5mm and taper the start of the pin to get it going then whack it in.
When in doubt..... UTE-ERIZE it!!!
