03-06 AWD rear seals and hardware part numbers

[04shadowvibe]

Here is the part information that i needed for this seal replacement. Should be the same for all 03-06 AWD Vibe and Matrix. I also needed new hardware to connect the knuckle to the rear control arms due to rust damage. I did this job by leaving the brakes and axle connected to the knuckle and unbolting the knuckle from the control arms. I used all Toyota parts for my job, prices were a lot lower than the same parts from GM.All part numbers are Toyota...Qty is for both sides of car.Rearend Axle Seals - 90311-42046 Qty needed 2Rearend Drain/Fill Plug Gaskets - 1257-10010 Qty needed 2Knuckle to Upper Control Arm Bolt (17mm head) - 90080-11512 Qty needed 2Nut for above bolt (17mm) - 90178-12007 Qty needed 2Knuckle to Lower Control Arm Front Bolt (17mm head) - 90080-10275 Qty needed 2Knuckle to LCA Rear Cam Bolt (19mm head) - 48409-32040 Qty needed 2Nuts for 2 above bolts (17mm) - 90179-12127 Qty needed 4Rear LCA Alignment Cam - 48452-32040 Qty needed 2

Some things i learned doing this, its easiest with 2 people. If you do like me, I unbolted the swaybar link,abs speed sensor wire on top control arm, abs wire bolt behind shock/spring, top control arm bolt and the 2 bottom control arm bolts, you will need someone to hold the brake drum and knuckle as you are under the car releasing the axles from the diff. This way you can leave the brakes connected. Go to lowes and get a 6" brass pipe maybe 1/2 inch diameter to drive the axles with, also a 16" wonder bar pry bar to pop out the drivers side axle. There a 1/4 inch wide notch about 1/16 of an inch deep to position the pipe against to pop the axle out. I drove out the pass side first then supported the drum/knuckle on a jackstand and bungie corded the inner cv joint to the exhaust. Then place the wonder bar under the diff and hammer against it to pop out the drivers axle and secure it the same way. Pull seals with a puller then oil new seals and install with the flared end out, driving the seal between 4.2-4.8mm into the rear diff.Clean the inner axles with brake cleaner, apply the gear oil to the splines and inner lip of the new seals. Position theopen part of the c clip down then reverse removal and drive axles in with brass pipe. Reconnect control arm bolts,i used antiseize on bolt shafts, torque to 55ft lbs. Reconnect swaybar 35 ft lbs, and install abs wire bolts. Refill diff with 85w-90.

Thanks for the information on this.

I just ordered all of those parts. If my bolts are in good shape is there any reason to replace them with new ones?

Some of those parts you mentioned were $10-$14 each. Others just $1-$4.

Any idea if I might need more than that?

Thanks!
