3rd Gen 4Runner Front Axle Seal Install Tool (1996-2002)

Purpose-built seal driver for installing the front passenger axle seal on 3rd gen 4Runners. This tool sets the seal to the correct 5.5mm depth every time, eliminating the guesswork — and leaks — that come from tapping it in freehand with a socket or blunt driver.

Why you need this:
Seating the seal too shallow or too deep is one of the most common causes of axle seal leaks after a DIY install. This adapter registers against the seal and housing bore to drive it to factory-spec depth in one controlled push, giving you a proper, even seat and a leak-free seal on the first try.

Available as:

• Physical part — printed, cleaned up, and ready to use out of the box.
• Digital file (STL) — print it yourself on your own machine.
