The Marlin Crawler Heavy Duty 25mm Chromoly Pin Upgrade

When we sought to build Toyota pins as large as Dana 60 lower pins, we never knew the results would be this fantastic. The image to the left clearly defines the 47% size increase of the 25mm Marlin Crawler Knuckle pin. By replacing your stock 17mm pins you are increasing the durability and also the safety of your Toyota-axle 4WD vehicle. Also of interest is that the stock component is a 1-piece cast setup whereas the Marlin Crawler component uses a Chromoly pin that is pressed into a solid billet cap, just like our High Steer arms. |

Here we have our new updated High-Capacity 8,500 pound-force 25mm KOYO knuckle bearing. The inner diameter literally dwarfs that of the stock NSK bearing. Can you believe that our KOYO bearing is 54% stronger than the stock Toyota bearing? You better believe it baby! Not only is our pin 47% larger, but our bearing is also 54% stronger to boot! It is a total upgrade package! |

Knowing that no steering linkage is attached to the lower cap, designing stronger fasteners wasn't a high priority of this upgrade kit. But then again this kit is designed by Marlin and he only wants the best parts for your rig! Without compromise, the kit includes high shear and high tensile strength 12.9 grade cap bolts along with high quality serrated conical washers made in Germany. |

All Billet Steel parts along with their 25mm Chromoly pins are all made in USA. As you can see on the lower caps, we are quite proud of USA made parts! |

Another impressive feature of our Billet Rock Guard lower cap is how much ground clearance is gained. As shown to the left, ground clearance is cut by a massive 60%. Put yourself in a rocks shoe: Would you rather hit an exposed single stud or go face-to-face with our Solid Billet Rock Guard lower cap? Stop risking bent studs with damaged delicate and exposed threads. Switch over to our Heavy Duty Knuckle Bearing Upgrade today! |
