Question 1

How to remove the rear axle shaft on Toyota Tundra?

Accepted Answer

The first step for removing the rear axle shaft starts with disconnecting the cable from the negative battery terminal after waiting at least 90 seconds to stop the Air Bag and seat belt pretensioner. The next step should be to remove the left-wheel rear tire and drain the brake fluid. You should break away the rear brake flexible hose by applying a union nut wrench to detach the brake tube while gripping the flexible hose with another wrench to avoid harming the brake tube or letting foreign substances enter the system. Begin by unscrewing the clip after which you can disconnect the rear disc brake cylinder assembly from the left-hand side by removing its two bolts but avoid bending or twisting the flexible hose. The next steps require spoliation of the rear disc combined with removal of the parking brake shoe return tension spring then the No. 1 parking brake shoe assembly and No. 2 parking brake shoe assembly followed by the parking brake shoe lever sub-assembly from the left-hand side. The maintenance requires disconnection of both the No. 3 parking brake cable assembly and the rear speed sensor from the left-hand side. To complete the process take away the rear axle shaft by unthreading four nuts then extracting the rear axle along with its parking brake plate while also removing the O-ring. You should employ Special Service Tool: 09308-00010 to remove the rear axle shaft oil seal while avoiding damaging the axle housing hole.

Question 2

How to install the rear axle shaft on Toyota Tundra?

Accepted Answer

The installation of the rear axle shaft begins with Special Service Tool: 09950-60020 09951-00770 to tap in a new oil seal using a hammer while applying MP grease to the lip of the oil seal to prevent the contact of foreign matter with the axle shaft housing hole. First install the axle shaft by adding MP grease to a new O-ring which is then used to mount the axle shaft after which you should install the rear axle shaft and parking brake plate by torquing four nuts to 60 Nm (612 kgf-cm, 44 ft-lbf). After connecting the rear speed sensor LH and the No. 3 parking brake cable assembly and parking brake shoe lever sub-assembly LH you must secure the No. 2 and No. 1 parking brake shoe assemblies LH and parking brake shoe return tension spring LH. Operational tests of the parking brake occur before placing the rear disc LH into position while setting the brake shoe clearance. When attaching the rear disc brake cylinder assembly LH, use two new bolts with torque of 95 Nm (969 kgf-cm, 70 ft-lbf). Follow the guidelines to avoid disturbing the flexible hose and ensure both bolts are free of damage and obstructive materials. The flexible hose can be connected to the brake tube by setting the connection point and installing a new clip before using a union nut wrench to fasten the hose to the tube at 15 Nm torque (155 kgf-cm) without the wrench and 14 Nm torque (145 kgf-cm) with it. During this process avoid both tube bending and damage and foreign matter entry. Reinstall the battery negative cable before filling the brake fluid reservoir and proceeding to bleed air from the brake master cylinder and brake line and the ABS and traction actuator assembly. The brake reservoir requires inspection for fluid level together with a search for fluid leakage. The rear wheel LH needs to be installed and torqued to 131 Nm (1336 kgf-cm, 97 ft-lbf) if it has aluminum wheels while steel wheel installations require 209 Nm (2131 kgf-cm, 154 ft-lbf). Check the differential oil level and inspect for any oil leaks before checking and adjusting the parking brake pedal movement. The final step consists of inspecting the SRS warning light together with the speed sensor signal.
