With 30 spline birfields, six stud knuckles, and chromo hub gears or drive flanges, the next weak link in your front axle is your hub studs. When they fail you will be left without four wheel drive, and often times the hub will be unrepairable. Trail-Gear, in partnership with ARP, have designed the most durable hub stud on the market. These hub studs are made from the strongest material ARP can manufacture for this type of fastener. ARP 2000 material has a tensile strength of 220,000 PSI and the ARP 2000 hub stud is cadmium plated to ensure that it is protected from rust and corrosion for many rough years to come. On the top of the stud we machined a 6mm hex head so that installation and maintenance is easy and no special tools are required. ARP 2000 hub studs are sold in kits of six with all the necessary hardware included.

Kit Includes:

•  (6) ARP 2000 Hub Studs

•  (6) Conical Washers

•  (6) Lock Washers

•  (6) Nuts

THESE ARE PRICED PER SIDE SO A QUANTITY OF 2 ARE NEEDED FOR ONE VEHICLE.

In many cases, stock wheel bearing nuts and star washers can be used several times. However, with the increased maintenance required of an off road vehicle, these will need to be replaced. Trail-Gear now offers a Chromo Spindle Nut Kit that allows you to more easily service your axle and decreases your long term service costs. The Locking Nut and Washer have been CNC machined from 4130 Chromoly. The Nut has also been heat treated to Grade 8 standards. Kit comes with the hardware necessary for one axle.

Advantages over stock:

• Stronger than stock. Made out of 4130 Chromoly.
• Extends the life of your wheel bearings due to loose spindle nut and OEM lock washer.
• Ease of installation.

This kit includes:

• Thrust Washer (qty 2)
• Spindle Locking Nut (qty2)
• Spindle Locking Washer (qty 2)
• Washer, M3 locking (qty 4)
• M3-.05 Socket Head Cap Screw (qty 4)

When Trail Gear tested the strength of 6 Stud knuckles, they found that running 6 OEM Studs on the 6 Stud knuckles was stronger than running 4 ARP Magnum Studs on a stock 4 stud knuckle.  So, with this information Trail-Gear looked at ways to make it stonger than even running OEM and not the cost of ARP studs. Now, Stronger and longer than stock Toyota replacement knuckle studs and more affordable than our Magnum Studs these studs will provide great strength without breaking the bank. Each stud is constructed from a proprietary metal made exclusively for Trail Gear.  These studs are manufactured to Trail-Gear's strict specifications and are significantly stronger than OEM standard (testing exceeded Class 12.9 standards). Trail Gear super metal knuckle studs are .250” (1/4”) longer than stock to accommodate all aftermarket steering arms. Like our Magnum Studs, TG super metal studs feature an integrated 8mm hex head for easy removal. These studs should be your first choice for knuckle hardware when repairing or upgrading your high-steer system.

We recommend using Locktight on the lower threads when installing knuckle studs. Studs should be tightened to 40 ft-lbs in the knuckles. Stud nuts should be tightened to 75 - 80 ft-lbs.

Fits 1979-1985 Toyota front solid axle knuckle.

NOTE: This is enough hardware to complete one six shooter knuckle. Purchase 2 kits for both knuckles.

Kit consist of the following:

• Knuckle cone washers (QTY: 6)
• Knuckle wave washers (QTY: 10)
• Knuckle nuts (QTY: 10)
• TG Super Metal knuckle studs (QTY: 10)

 Manufactured in the U.S. using only high-strength chromoly materials, RCV Performance Ultimate 30 spline CV Axle set simply replaces your weak Toyota axle shafts with a new high-strength design. The factory axles were designed with 30 splines at the differential, and neck down to 27 Spline at the CV creating a common failure point. This axle set upgrades the weak 27 splines at the CV to a 300M 30 spline race eliminating the need to neck down the shaft.

Tests prove Ultimate CV Axles to be twice as strong as OEM shafts, and they're just as tough at a straight angle as they are at extreme angles. Even if you have big tires and big power there are no worries. Ultimate CV Axles are low maintenance and operate with a smoothness you can feel - whether off road or on the street.

Axle set includes right and left inner axle shafts & 2 pregreased CV joints. Black oxide coating is standard, 

What makes these axles unique among any other axle set is that the inner race is made from 300M. You can tell that the race is 300M by a slight discoloration from the rest of the birfield. These are the only birfields that have this billet 300M race.

Includes:

Inner Axle Shaft -Long

Inner Axle Shaft -Short

2 - 4340 Chromoly and 300M RCV Birfields

2- Inner Hub Gears, 4340 Chromoly

Birfields come pre-greased. Always use moly based grease for CV Axles and Birfields.
