Mine never have. I've bought quite a few kits, and all I have gotten is the locking shim with the bendy tabs.

A company called UBC is doing heaps cheap kits at the moment, all chinese bearings and seals. They have hilux and patrol gear on the shelf (i know this for a fact as he was trying to sell them to me last week). Not sure on the zook stuff, but I'm sure they do the parts separately anyway.
My cost price on the kits i supply and their kits its half. If a hilux swivel hub kit costs me 100 to purchase, the chinese one is 50. Its not something I'm willing to supply unless they are asked for, and we are often asked for the cheapest possible

Has anyone used this guys kits? just brought a kit yesterday cause it was the only one that had everything. it didn't say what brand the bearings where in it so i hope they are ok.
on a side note is it a 50mm socket i need?? i normally use a screw driver and hammer to undo it just thinking the right tool for the job would be better.

You can buy a specific wheel bearing socket for around 420 or a normal 50mm socket from omwhere lik trade tools, they are not that expensive and is a good investment.
