Definitely a win win mod.. and bang for your buck.

Brought the two skf bearings and 8 washers. Didn't even bother with the rubber and nylon washers. Works fine with no vibration noise. Pretty happy with it

7.90 for them bearing though. Washers were. 10 cents.

Don't bother with the nylon washers. Just get 4 rubber washers and put one on top and under the bearing. The nylon ones are useless.

You don;t need to run any type of special washer on all of my cars ive done this to i just use whats there at the time plain simple cheap washers

Posted

what I found from.experience is u need to use at least one rubber washer from bunnings (look in the plumbing section) and 3 of the zennith metal washers. they will fit nice and tight. no need for nylon ones. nylon amentioned above just feels in the gap between the washer so it doesn't rattle at a certain rpm.

did this to my 1zz ages ago, still running pretty well... just wish that the vertical one could have been changed.

good beneficial mod for less then $10.

hey guys, I attempted to do this mod today and being the unlucky clumsy guy I am, I did exactly what I was told not to do and lost the clip somewhere in my engine bay :( Would I need to get one ordered or something from Toyota or do they sell it somewhere at the shops? I tried Autobarn and they were hopeless. Also, what happens when there's no clip on..

Posted

just use a paper clip.it will be sufficent

Posted

they cost stuff all from toyota, just get it from there. wreckers should have an abundant supply of clips

Posted

alright thanks guys :) I'll be heading off to Toyota later on today.

The ones in my AE82 fit in the Sportivo so your not going to have issues there. Ive got a bag full of them in my garage somewhere!

Posted

haha oh and by the way, this is an amazing mod for the money you pay for it! Plus I'm pretty sure it fixed my problem of not being able to shift completely into gear sometimes. One problem down, a whole list to go! :clap:
