Professionally Reconditioned with Premium Components

Every LandCruiser 78, 79, and 105 Series front differential centre undergoes a comprehensive overhaul. The housing is completely stripped, hot-washed, and thoroughly inspected before being rebuilt using high-grade Japanese bearings and seals, genuine Toyota parts where required, and quality replacement gearsets. Backlash and crown wheel tooth contact patterns are set to exact OEM specifications to ensure long-lasting durability for touring, heavy work, and off-road driving.

Common Front Differential Failures

Front differential centres on heavy-duty 78, 79, and 105 Series LandCruisers frequently suffer from worn carrier bearings, damaged crown wheel teeth, leaking pinion seals, and excessive backlash created by hard off-road use or heavy loads. Fitting a professionally reconditioned differential centre provides a far more reliable, long-term solution than chancing an untested second-hand unit with unknown wear.
