2000 Toyota Tacoma Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to service and repair the axle shaft on 2000 Toyota Tacoma?
A: Begin servicing or repairing axle shafts on RZN191L-TRPDKAB, RZN196L-CRPDKAB, and VZN195L-CRPDKAB PreRunner models by first removing the rear wheel with brake drum while tightening it to 110 Nm (1,150 kgf-cm, 83 ft. lbs). A dial indicator should verify bearing backlash below 0.7 mm (0.028 inch) while measuring axle shaft deviation at 0.1 mm (0.0039 inch) maximum if the components need replacement. When working on models that have ABS systems you should detach the speed sensor connected to the rear axle housing then fasten the mounting bolt with 8.0 Nm (82 kgf-cm, 71 inch lbs.) torque. The maintenance process begins by detaching the rear brake assembly and then using Special Service Tool: 09751-36011 with a torque of 15 Nm (155 kgf-cm, 11 ft. lbs.) to disconnect the brake line. Three-Wheel-Drive models require the removal of two parking brake cable bolts set to 9.3 Nm (95 kgf-cm, 82 inch lbs.). Pull out the rear axle shaft assembly after removing its four mounting nuts which need 68 Nm (700 kgf-cm, 50 ft. lbs.) torque while handling it carefully to preserve the oil seal's condition. The first step involves removing the O-ring from the rear axle housing before disconnecting the bearing retainer and ABS speed sensor rotor through the attachment of four nuts on serration bolts followed by application of a hammer for removal. After surface preparation of the retainer and sensor rotor install their serration bolts alongside washers and nuts. Use a snap ring expander to extract the axle shaft snap ring before completing the removal of the rear axle shaft from its backing plate installation by employing Special Service Tool: 09521-25011 and a press. Inspect both the axle shaft and flange runout with a limit of 2.0 mm (0.079 inch) runout for the shaft and 0.1 mm (0.004 inch) runout for the flange; if damage or wear is present then replacement is needed. Use Special Service Tool: 09308-00010 to remove the outer oil seal before you replace the rear axle bearing through the use of Special Service Tool: 09223-56010, 09950-60010 (09951-00560) and a press in combination with Special Service Tool: 09515-30010, 09950-60020 (09951-00890) and a press for installation of the new bearing. Fasten a hammer to Special Service Tools: 09950-60010 (09951-00610), 09950-70010 (09951-07150) in order to properly install a fresh outer oil seal. Begin bearing case replacement through outer oil seal and bearing extraction followed by bolt attachment with four nuts and culminating in bearing and bearing case removal by hammer usage. Install the new bearing case by placing the backing plate directly onto it then fastening the serration bolts with a hammer. After placing the backing plate onto a new bearing case you should use two socket wrenches to install the serration bolts and proceed to add a new bearing and outer oil seal. To replace the oil deflector use a hammer and brass bar to separate the hub bolts together with the deflector and gasket before installing new parts with a proper torque value. Apply MP grease to the new oil seal lip before fitting it with the rear axle shaft into the backing plate and bearing retainer. To install the rear axle shaft into the backing plate the technician should apply Special Service Tool: 09316-60011 (09316-00051) and a press. Afterwards the installation of a new snap ring using the snap ring expander should follow. The installation of ABS speed sensor rotor and bearing retainer must use Special Service Tool: 09316-60011 (09316-00051) together with a press where the standard length of 122.2 plus or minus 1.0 mm (4.811 plus or minus 0.039 inch) must be maintained during installation. The new inner oil seal lip requires coating with MP grease before installing with Special Service Tool: 09308-00010 and Special Service Tools: 09950-60020 (09951-00710), 09950-70010 (09951-07150) and a hammer. CloseOperation after reversing the installation sequence follows so bleeding the brake system and verifying the ABS speed sensor signal completes the process.
