does any one no where i can get the rubber body mounts where the core support mounts to the frame i think there rubber maybe someone will no exactly what im looking for thanks.
I know exactly what you are talking about. I just bought new bushings and hardware from the toyota dealer so I can install a new core support . The 4 rubber bushings ran about $60 with my shop discount.
should i just get some universal bushings and make them work or what would be the best thing it is really frustrating.
Well they don't really contibute to the ride comfort. The cab bushings do somewhat. I would question the purpose of them being there. Maybe electrical grounding or something? The bolts for them go through the core support. So they have to be a certain size. Unless you want to drill out the core support but I don't believe there is much choice even with drilling. Maybe you could pull them off a junker truck? If you have like a pick and pull it would be good to just bring a prybar and wrenches and pull them out. Any rubber bushing in similar size would probably do. It just depends on what you can find to determine what you must modify to make it work. The frame mounts are like a cup shape and they sit in there. There are also sleeves inside between the bolt and rubber. And some large washers.
do you have a problem with your current bushings? or are you just looking for a upgrade? I went with new factory bushings for a few reasons; Rubber doesn't exactly get better with age. Basically any bushings you find in a yard are going to be 15- 20 years old, flat and hard. My factory bushings and the bushings on my doner 4runner front clip were junk. the only urethane bushings I could find were for 4x4, although they look identical I didn't really want to be the guinea pig. Urethane is also kind of a bitch. The extra flexibility of the rubber was extremely helpful lining up new parts.
well i couldn't find the original since the truck was apart when i got it i didn't even know if i had them but i dug and dug through all the crap i got and found 1 yesterday and today i was going through one of my other boxes and found it and they seem to be in good condition so im going put them back on do you have a pic of how they go on i think i know but i would like to be sure thanks guys.
