It was the top bracket that snapped, it really would be an achievement. To snap the other one. Had a desaster day yesterday, my mate was towing me home and we hooked the rope to what I thought was a towing eye that attached to the crash bar. Long story short I don't have aa crash bar any more. I the...

i had a look on rs website but i couldnt find any liquid type polyurethane what was the stuff you used called?

4) Before the speedsource ones were around some people experimented with making DIY bushes using liquid polyurethane from RS or similar. Bit of a faff but not too expensive and you can in theory tune the stiffness to your personal preference. Should be some threads about it somewhere if you search....

They all look ok no splits in the boots and not much movement on them, but then how much should you be able to move them? whats the best way to check the driveshafts?

As far as I'm aware you have the following options, all of which have various pros/cons: 1) Buy new from Toyota, assuming they still have stock. This would mean replacing the metal part of the mount as well and would probably be expensive. Fitting would be easy though as it's just a few bolts. 2) '...
