Use CV grease or Molybdenum(black sticky shit) for the swivel hubs and CV joints, and obviously wheel bearing grease for the wheel bearings.

Have you done them before? Take note of what order the steel, rubber and felt come off the back of the swivel hub.

I've done heaps of cruiser ones but not Hilux, probably the same.

It's a very messy, time consuming job, have plenty of rags.
