hello, I have vibration in my steering wheel when I go through the gravel road and also in my pedals, do you know what the problem is Also when I go first I think the motor jumps and hits the metal , Thank you!
Juan, that sounds like movement where there should be none. Check engine mounts, trans mounts, tie rod ends and every bushing you can find. Over time those all wear out and you'll get clunks, vibrations and thuds all over. Welcome to owning an old car. :)
I have been watching this video a least 3-5 times already. Each time I watch I learn something new. Did my rear sway bar bushings the other weekend and used your dishwasher soap trick. Nice. I also noticed that you replaced the Sway bar bushings in the front but when I watch the video it looks Ike the bushings are directly above the Torsion bars. Is that correct? Did you use any special technique to get those bushing bolts out? Did you have to remove the Torsion bar? Probably hard to get an impact wrench in there? Did they come out fairly easily? Thanks for your help and your great videos.
Sway bar bushings directly above: not sure what you mean. There are cushions above the sway bar pivot points. Is that what you mean? Bushing bolts: no trick I recall. Remove torsion bar: Definitely not. Impact: Yeah, some of those bolts are just hand wrench only. A variety of extensions and joints and sockets is helpful. Glad it's a useful video!
I don't know if your upload date reflects when you actually did this job and the previous time you replaced bushings, but if it does, did the new bushings only last a little over a year?? If so, is that normal?
Good question, that's actually two different cars! First video was my 99LC. This video is my 06 Cypress LX. Really common for these bushings to be bad, so it's a good first task when buying a 100. The bushings should last 150-250k miles.
I was told that the front right sway bar link was connected to the frame. My 03 lx470 had been up north and sustained some corrosion damage underneath. A mechanic told me that I may foresee a break in the future and that he didn't know what to tell me. Would you guys have any advice for me?
Whatever grease happens to be in my grease gun - typically valvoline multipurpose grease for import vehicles or something like that. I don't think the exact grease type is too important, but I could be wrong...
Really enjoying these videos. Preciate you taking the time to document it!
Thanks! If you all keep watching, I'll keep filming!
Thanks for these videos and your contributions on MUD!
Good stuff. I will be here soon. So happy you gave me some tips.
I'm doing the same thing on my '04 new-to-me GX470. Already done on my '00 Tundra.
Good task for most any 10+ year old vehicle.
Please make a video on the rear bushings when you get them in. Awesome video as usual, very helpful.
Definitely. That'll probably be a late 2020 project. I think I'll replace all 5 control arms with new Toyota parts.
going thru my 2003 cruiser now - little by little
Love your videos. Great help 👍
Thank you sir , I fix the problem

@@user-df1gh8le6l doing the fronts this weekend. Love your narration style.
Didn’t catch the part number for the diff bushing that you used the C-Clamp to install?
I think 41651-60010 is what you're looking for.
What was the part number @ 17:20 the rear bushing? I just purchased 90560-10275 and it’s only the spacer.
90385-11021 I bet is what you're looking for.
Any idea on part number for lower arms bushings?

@@user-df1gh8le6l Got it, thanks! My sanity is restored. I've been handed down an 02 LX with 265k odo that I'm really excited to learn on.

Hard to say without seeing the rust.
Are you in Texas?
No, Colorado
What grease do you use for the drive shafts?
Whatever grease happens to be in my grease gun - typically valvoline multipurpose grease for import vehicles or something like that. I don't think the exact grease type is too important, but I could be wrong...
Are the bushings the same for a land cruiser 2000?, thanks.
Yes, I believe all 100 series from 98-2007 are the same for these bushings.
