Front Differential Bushing Replacement - 100 Series Land Cruiser LX470

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This fix can help reduce/eliminate thunk or thud felt when shifting between D and R or between braking and acceleration. Other cause of thunk could be play in the diff, play in the axles, play in the hub flanges. These bushings are a good and cheap first step.

    Great vid. With the thunk/thud we hear in our 100s, most people talk about greasing the driveshaft on the forums. I can literally feel the thud near my feet and never thought to look at replacing those bushings. Going to research this a little more, but appreciate the video to get me looking into a new solution. (Also have a YotaMD key fob and dig it)

    Hey, how did you go? Did it resolve your problem? I noticed a similar movement on my HDJ100, thought the rubber was torn as I could see right through it. Ordered and replaced the whole arm. Unfortunately, what I didn't know is that the bushing just like all the other front diff support bushings have holes in them to allow for movement. Put the new one in and it was flexing exactly the same as the old one. Complete waste of money and time. There are several videos here of guys replacing these bushes (one or all) at great effort and cost and they all seem to have the same amount of flex in them both before and after replacement. One possible exception appears to be the front support bushing. This is supposed to suffer most wear. But still haven't seen any of them torn. May just du with just the upper cushion replacement. I'm still looking for my clunk noise. Already replaced the side support arm, all upper / lower arm bushings, ball joints, shocks & CV's. It's driving me crazy!

    my clunck sounds like it's coming from the rear, not the front of the truck. Is this the fix for that? For context, I bought my 02 with 40k on it. It had that clunck sound the day I got it. It now has 330k miles, same clunck.

    I'd recommend setting a camera down under the car and watch for the front mount to move during shifting. Pry bar works, but camera might be better and more convenient.

    Pretty fun trick to help diagnose this before tearing apart. I managed to put a thick rubber gasket between the front diff bushing and mount. It's a band-aid for sure but it allowed me to realized that the front diff bushing is the main problem as the clunk went away. Thanks for the video. >> I know this is tough but If you had to go at it again, would you just replace the front diff housing/arm or fight the old bushing out? If replacing the arm, would you agree that it is Toyota 52380-60030

    @@MikeDigMT I actually went through this again with my 06LX that I picked up early this year. I changed out the front arm, the front lower bushing and the pucks in front and in back. I left the rear main bushing because my 99 one was so nice. The arm part number you mention is the rear arm - I'd leave that alone. The side arm that's commonly bad is 52380-60040. The second time around this job was cake. Very fast. Once you're comfortable with the air hammer you can cruise through removal and buying the arm from Toyota saves you a solid hour of screwing around with the bushing and you just unbolt the old and bolt in the new.

    No, I don't think so. I think you'd distort the washer. I have another video, Chapter 2 of the Cypress Build, where I show the action of pressing that bushing in with an impact. It's enough force that I think a proper press die is needed instead of the washer. You'd also risk some damage to the nut or bolt threads. Grab the C clamp tool off Amazon and make it easy/easier on yourself.
