93 4wd front disk
I need to change the front disks on my 93 4wd. I cant find any good and consistent information to replace them. How do you get them off to swap out?
thanks

do a google search for a toyota factory service manual...there are free pdf files all over the internet...
probably a thousand threads here about brake jobs...
look around...its a self service website.

I'm usually pretty skeptical of You-tube videos, but if you're having trouble following the manual, then this one isn't too bad:

The main problem im having is the understanding of the manual locking hub. How to remove and not screw it up. then do i have to remove the entire spindle from the upper and lower BJ? Ive read that they bolt on from the rear of the spindle. but i have also read that it just slips off. WOuld just like some clarifications.
The only tool i would not have would be the large nut on the end of the cvd. and yes i have the aptitude to replace them. I just need to know what im getting into so not to spend un-necessary monies.

1. make sure the hub is in "FREE" position;
2. take off the 6 (10 mm)* bolts on the cover; remove same;
3. take off the 6 (12 mm)* nuts/lock washers off the studs which hold the locker body onto the hub;
*I believe
4. get a brass punch** and hammer to loosen up cone washers that are on the studs that get pressed into the holes after the nuts you just removed get tightened; spray them w/ penetrant like PB Blaster to help them come off and be patient, they will come off;
**be careful because locker body is aluminum, hence the brass punch...
5. once all six cone washers are loose/off, remove locker body off spindle;
6. remove gold bolt from end of axle shaft;
6. remove c clip that is in groove in front of bearing adjustment nuts;
7. remove axle bearing adjustment nuts with a 54mm or 2 1/8" socket;
have to remove the retainer washer also between the two nuts;
8. remove 17 mm (I believe) bolts from the steering knuckle that holds the caliper onto to the knuckle;
9. remove caliper after you have removed the hard brake line from the caliper so you CAN remove the caliper;
10. remove rotor from the spindle and there you have it.
Now you can check the bearings and races; either clean and repack or replace with new.
To get you started, here's a few links....
