There is one in the back of the hub spindle. I'm not sure that its purpose is to hold the axle central, but it does remove a little bit of float from the CV.

Just do your inner oil seal, Felts, king pins, wheelbearings and dust seal, and re-grease your CV and locking hub assembly, and thats it.

It seems the toyota guys change them because the axle seals must be abit shit.
If the axle seal wont seal. This bush can be the problem.
Im yet to change one.

I don't think they're even available as a separate part, certainly not from Suzuki where it is an integral piece of the spindle. As others have said, I've never heard of anyone having to replace one because they flog out your axle seal.

Pretty sure you can't replace them. They are part of the spindle, so you would have to buy a new spindle hub.

The bush is brass/bronze, The knuckle/hub is not.
So.. they are replaceable.
Whether you can buy them or not is a different story.
