I'd say it is for sure, considering stock hubs can't use 10mm hub bolts, and hub bolts are the weak link with stock hubs. Are they made from "super metal"?  Steve

It's probably because its also a universal AISIN hub part, so will fit in Hilux, Cruiser, Isuzu, etc... Much bigger market than just Sierra/Samurai.
I've never seen one break, but have seen more than a few rusted up, particularly in vehicles that don't see much 4wd use and never engage the front hubs.

The spline on a Toyo CV is different to a Sierra CV, so the inner dog is specific, but that item in the pic is generic to all AISIN hubs. Do fit, as I have used Toyo bits in a Sierra hub rebuild before!

Completely interchangeable, and most likely the same AISIN part number. If an aftermarket part is made to fit a Sierra hub, it will also fit a Toyota hub, and vice versa. If you feel differently, perhaps you could back it up with pics and measurements?

Previous. But it was changed for royce.
It wasnt to say toyota and suzuki are different.
It was, that they arent a new product for a big market they have been around for ages and are just recently available as a suzuki product.
The longfield set i used didnt fit. Dont know why. But they didnt. That is all.
