Prado 120 Adventures Ep20: Rear Wheel Bearing Replacement 

Super clear camera work and great explanation. Thank’s again Todd.

Great videos thanks. I have just done new rotors, calipers, pads, brake shoes on my 03 120. I did see a comment on another site that said to replace the rear bearings at 350-400k and thought about it but a toss up as a Prado mechanic I had used previously said if they are OK leave 'em be as the originals are superb bearings. BUT while fitting the left rear handbrake shoes I saw that the "shroud" with the internal cone shape on the actual axle that fits over the cone of the bearing housing had split in 2 leaving about 1cm of it to flop around. Maybe called the oil deflector? as seen in your video at 18:31 - the conical bit on the left is in 2 pieces so: a replacement axle, probably a used one, and new bearings both sides. As I'm a bit isolated without a vehicle I'll see if the local mechanic come and have a look see and advise.

Excellent video, super helpful, thank you

Well done Todd. About to go check mine now after seeing how bad yours was.

Great vid 👍 cheers

Great video! Just one question, did the car make any sound/noise before the lights came out on the dash?

Excelente video Tood, if i need change de seal front the house bearing, i need a press? A recommendation if you allow me, at minute 14:33, the spring of the shoes would go behind the adjuster, leaving it like that, you could not adjust the handbrake without removing the disc

Great video Todd, wish my 120 Lc4 was as rust free

Just got charged $347 to press my 2 rear wheel bearings on, ripped off!! Nothing I could do.

my bolt 3:03 completely rusted stripped and its damaged with me trying to get it off :D

You should be using white lithium grease on your handbrake fittings, and not as much as you have used.

The only hard bit is getting that dumb spring in the handbrake, you didn't show me your technique.

I had to remove all this my self as the centra diff blow up or should say broke whatever remaining teeth I had on the crown wheel.

How much does the shop charged to replace it? I have to do mine and I’m just curious 🧐 Thank you

Nice one, is the 200 the same?

Perche non hai fatto vedere come si toglie l'anello che ferma il semiasse?

Great vid mate. I'm guessing your gonna chip it.

They left a washer off between the bearing and retainer.

My god putting the brake shoes back on is a pain!
