Safety precautions
- Work on level surface, chock opposite wheels, engage parking brake.
- Use rated jackstands under safe lift points — never rely on the hydraulic jack alone.
- Wear eye protection; press and pullers can throw parts.
- Support brake caliper with hangers; don’t let it hang by the hose.
- If heating parts, avoid flammable fluids and follow safe torch use.
- Disconnect battery if you will be disconnecting ABS sensor wiring.

Overview (two common arrangements)
1) Serviceable pressed-in bearing/race in steering knuckle with separate hub — bearing must be pressed out/in.
2) Sealed hub-unit (cartridge hub) bolted to knuckle — replace entire hub assembly (simpler).

Step-by-step procedure (general — adapt to the exact axle/hub arrangement)

1. Preparation
- Park on level ground, chock rear wheels, set parking brake.
- Loosen wheel lug nuts slightly while car is on ground.

2. Raise vehicle & remove wheel
- Jack and support on jackstands. Remove wheel.

3. Remove brake components
- Remove caliper bolts, hang caliper with wire/hanger. Do not let it dangle by hose.
- Remove brake rotor. If seized, use penetrating oil and tap hub/rotor face with hammer or use bolts to draw rotor off.

4. Remove dust cap, cotter pin, and axle/hub nut
- Pry off dust cap (if present) with flat screwdriver.
- Remove cotter pin and locking nut retainer if present.
- Loosen/remove the axle/hub nut (impact or breaker bar). You may need to hold the hub from turning with a pry bar or have an assistant.

5A. If vehicle has a bolt-on hub assembly (cartridge hub)
- Remove hub-to-knuckle bolts (usually 3–4). Remove electrical connector for ABS sensor if attached.
- Pull hub assembly straight off the spindle/knuckle. Use a hub puller or impact to free it if corroded.
- Clean mating surfaces, inspect spindle/knuckle for damage.
- Install new sealed hub assembly: align splines (if driven), push on until seated, torque hub bolts to OEM spec, install new axle/hub nut or torque/stake as required, install new cotter pin/dust cap. Reassemble brakes/wheel.

5B. If pressed-in bearing (hub separate)
- Remove hub from spindle/knuckle. On some models hub slides off axle splines after nut removal; on others you need a puller.
- With hub removed, remove snap ring (if present) that retains the outer race.
- Use a hydraulic/mechanical press or bearing puller to press the bearing and race out of the knuckle. Support the knuckle on press blocks and press on the inner race to drive bearing out. When pressing a bearing out, apply pressure ONLY to the part being moved — when removing the outer race, press on the race, not the inner race, to avoid damage.
- Clean knuckle bore thoroughly; inspect for pitting, scoring or cracks. Replace knuckle if damaged.

6. Install new bearing/race (if pressed-in type)
- Install new outer race first if the design has one separate from the bearing. Use a proper race driver sized to the race outer diameter; seat it squarely. Do not hammer on the inner race or bearing.
- If the bearing is a two-piece (cone & cup), pack the cone with high‑temp wheel bearing grease (unless it's a sealed unit). Use grease packer or hand-pack by working grease into the rollers and cage until grease exudes from the sides.
- Press bearing into knuckle using driver that contacts only the outer race. Support knuckle so bearing goes in straight and square. Press slowly and evenly until fully seated.
- Install any required snap ring, then new seal. Lightly coat seal lip with grease before installing. Drive seal flush without distorting.

7. Reinstall hub
- Slide hub back onto spindle/splines carefully. Keep splines and mating surfaces clean; use light oil on splines if instructions allow.
- If hub rides on pressed bearing, you may need to press hub on until it seats on bearing inner race.
- Install new axle/hub nut. For setups requiring preload (tapered bearings, adjustable hub nut), follow procedure: tighten to seating torque, then loosen to remove end-play, then re-torque to specified preload and install lock washer/cotter pin. For sealed hub units with a single torque spec, torque to the OEM number. Always use a torque wrench and the specified sequence.

8. Reassemble brakes & wheel
- Reinstall rotor, caliper bracket and caliper. Replace any hardware that was removed if worn.
- Reinstall wheel, lower vehicle to ground, torque lug nuts to spec.

9. Final checks
- Spin wheel by hand, check for smooth operation and no play. If adjustable preload, measure endplay per service manual and adjust.
- Test drive at low speed first listening for noise/vibration; re-torque hub nut and lug nuts after break‑in per manufacturer instructions.

How to use key tools correctly
- Press: Support the knuckle on appropriately sized blocks. Use drivers that contact race outer diameter when installing. Press slowly; keep parts aligned. If pressing out a bearing, press against the inner race for the bearing if removing the inner piece, or against the outer race when removing the outer. Never press on rollers.
- Puller/slide hammer: Attach evenly to hub face or lugs; apply steady pulls. Use penetration and a few hits rather than excessive force which can damage splines/threads.
- Heat: Use torch to heat knuckle/hub slightly (not exceeding paint/metal safe limits) to break corrosion; do not heat bearing directly—that will destroy it.
- Torque wrench: Use correct range and socket fit. Tighten in stages; always final torque with a calibrated torque wrench.
- Bearing driver/race driver: Choose driver diameter equal to part being driven; strike squarely with a mallet. Avoid mushrooming edges.

Replacement parts & seals
- Either a sealed hub assembly or wheel bearing & race (and seals) plus hub nut/cotter pin. Replace ABS tone ring if damaged.
- Always install new seals; reusing old seals invites contamination.
- Replace grease if using serviceable bearings; replace with OEM-specified grease.

Common pitfalls & how to avoid them
- Reusing old seals or bearings: leads to premature failure. Replace seals and nuts.
- Pressing on the wrong surface: pressing on the inner race when you should press the outer (or vice versa) will damage the bearing. Use correct driver that contacts only the intended race.
- Incorrect preload/torque: over-tightening shortens bearing life; under-tightening causes play and noise. Use OEM torque/preload procedure.
- Not supporting caliper: hanging by hose risks brake damage. Always hang caliper securely.
- Contamination during install: keep bearings/seals clean and grease-packed. Work in a clean area.
- Damaging ABS ring or sensor: disconnect and protect sensor wiring; avoid hammer blows near tone ring.
- Not inspecting knuckle: pitting or out-of-round bores ruin new bearings — replace knuckle if damaged.
- Using cheap bearings or incorrect part number: buy correct OEM or quality equivalent; match bearing dimensions and type.

Notes
- Exact torque values and preload procedure vary by application — obtain the Toyota service manual for your specific chassis that uses the 1DZ‑II engine to get accurate torque specs and any model-specific steps.
- If you are not equipped with a press or confident in setting bearing preload, replace the complete hub assembly (sealed hub) — it’s faster, less error-prone, and often recommended.

Follow these steps exactly, use correct tools and parts, and check all torques and endplay to ensure a safe, long‑lasting repair.
