Rear Bearing Puller/Press Tool Loaner Program

[weekendclimber]

Cool, I'll PM you when I get closer, thinking in a couple of weeks.

Actually just watched it this AM, been binge watching Rear Axle Seal replacement videos. Very nice job putting it together. A lot of work goes into videos, filming (?) them is hard enough, then trying to edit it all is very time consuming. Making it watchable is on another level

[MENTION=193907]Hopeless Diamond[/MENTION] came by today and picked this up from me to get his rear axles done. Of course, we couldn't help but chit chat for a while about 4Runner stuff, so my wife was right about how long it was going to take :lmao:

Updated the spreadsheet as well.

Hey there, new to the forum!

I just bought a 4runner. A 2001 limited in Millenium Silver. Can't stop looking at it.

Had to do an inspection on the vehicle and things that didn't pass were the seized bell cranks and passenger side rear axle seal was shot. I put in the dorman cranks and changed out the inner seal, no leak so far but it was a temporary fix to pass inspection.

I ordered new bearings, seals and everything from Amayama but am pretty intimidated by the installation process without this tool. I was trying to figure out if I should buy it and then try to resell it but this loaner idea seems even more ideal.

I'm up in "Canuckistan" but am willing to pay whatever the shipping comes to. It shouldn't be much more I imagine.

Willing to provide ID or whatever needed to confirm the validity due to low post count. Been lurking for weeks and gotten an amazing slew of tips and tricks to get my 4runner running happy as a fat boy with cake.

TIA

Sorry [MENTION=570267]kryptonitewhale[/MENTION], I've got to keep this in the lower 48. They're aren't terribly expensive off of Ebay, assuming shipping doesn't get you.

So, update to the list: [MENTION=193907]Hopeless Diamond[/MENTION] picked this up locally from me and got it back the next week along with A Little Sumpin' Sumpin'. Thank you kind sir!! I've updated the Google sheet and it's open for whomever would need it next.

Cheers :cheers:

Sounds good. You're first in line right now. Ashamed, I could have helped you out not long ago since I was living up off of Metric Blvd there in Austin about 2 years ago. :beer:

Looking to rent the tool if possible, also a long-time lurker. just went out after a weekend of wheeling, anything I need to provide?

 

[datsuyama]

Newb here, not in need of the tool (yet), but wanted to say it is freaking awesome a year later this system is still working. I'm somewhat amazed but mostly thankful this community is so awesome. A huge thank you to weekendclimber for making this a reality.

Approximately how long is the waiting list? I will need this tool soon

 

[weekendclimber]

Sorry. I lost track of this thread a little bit.

So, I currently have [MENTION=302380]rexassian[/MENTION] next on the list. I'm not sure if he's still in need of this, so I'll have him chime it. Looks like then [MENTION=139174]TW44LR[/MENTION] would be next and then [MENTION=119310]ride4x4forlife[/MENTION]. Post up here [MENTION=302380]rexassian[/MENTION] if you could switch spots for someone more in immediate need.

I've updated the spreadsheet on the first post.

I'm definitely still interested. Waiting on this to do my rear disk swap at the same time :frog: :beer:

All good I was in a rush so I ended up buying one so if anyone wants one for a discounted price I have one haha.

[MENTION=302380]rexassian[/MENTION] has it now and thinks he should be done by the end of this coming weekend. I've got you next on the list if you still need this. I'll have him send it your way once he's done.

I will be needing this near the end of October to do a rear disc brake conversion, so hopefully that fits into your timeframe :thumb:

ran into problems with the press this weekend and didn't get the job done. Hoping to get a hold of another press soon and get it done this week. How "pressing" is the timeline here? :drum: :biggrin1:

Not sure what [MENTION=119310]ride4x4forlife[/MENTION]'s plans are. Hope it shouldn't be an issue for them.

 

[weekendclimber]
