I did this a while back, and they leaked right after. I bought a pair of shaft sleeves and installed them. National part number 99139. Had to make a custom install tool, but it worked!
Helpful video! For the axle shaft seal, does the lip face outward from the diff? Also what grease do you recommend for the seal? I was thinking STP hi temp grease. Appreciate any insight.
The chine (flared lip) on the seals face outward. BTW the original OEM seals don’t have this characteristic. It was an afterthought to extend serviceable life. I use silicon based grease as a prelube on seals, although the Suzuki OEM seals are packaged pre-lubricated. 🍻
didn't know you had a small lathe Ian:) man, those SUZUKI keep you hopping...what all this maintenance would have cost at shop rates over the last few years!
Hey I meant to mention…I purchased an X10 attenuator and a A/C coupler from your Pal Martin’s website last week. They will likely pop up in a vid at some point . I will be sure to mention the source. 🍻👍

Fortunately all relatively simple/cheap repairs. 378,000K On the AWD car now…But admittedly they aren’t Toyota’s. Cheers Denis 👍

378K isn't anything to sneeze at...great going!
