Product Details

This SKF differential crush sleeve is used in rear axle differential service where precise bearing preload is required. Replacing the crush sleeve during teardown helps maintain the intended setup during reassembly, which is important for long-term driveline performance. SKF KRS152 is listed for 2007-2021 Toyota Tundra rear applications with a 9.5" ring gear, plus 2007-2011 Toyota Land Cruiser rear and 2013-2014 Toyota Land Cruiser rear applications. This part cross-references 41231-34020 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Incorrect differential bearing preload after service
• Rear axle noise related to worn setup components
• Need for a new crush sleeve during differential rebuilds
• Repeat repair work caused by reusing a compressed sleeve

Installation Notes

Install during rear differential service and set preload according to the vehicle service procedure. The sleeve is compressed during setup, so it should be replaced rather than reused after disassembly. Verify axle configuration, including the 9.5" ring gear note where applicable, before ordering and installation.
