Hi folks

I’m looking at changing out the rubber body mount blocks on a HJ75 cab chassis. Most of what I've found searching this forum and the web relates to doing a lift, whereas I only want to replace originals with equivalents, rubber not polyurethane. Anyone know where I can get rubber replacements in Aust (without going to the local Toyota dealer)? Any other tips appreciated.

Thanks

Dermie

Hi Dermie,
Spectrum rubber in St mary's NSW has all manner of early and late model vehicle rubber bits.
http://www.spectrumrubber.com.au/
Even if it isn't listed they probably still make it.

Thanks for the replies. I had seen the Locktup site Doug, and already inquired about those mounts but they are for HiLux only , no Landcruiser available (quite different profile). The Spectrum rubber catalog was fascinating viewing, I had no idea that anyone provided such a comprehensive range of that type of product, good to know for the future.

In terms of genuine Toyota mounts there are a few options to get them from the US, Japan or UAE at less than half the local Toyota dealer rate but I can’t quite nail down postage / freight costs so am unsure of the final damage, it could end up about the same as getting them locally.

Cheers
