    All my spherical bushing are changed to new. The clunk happens whenever i put it in N to D or R, and whenever I suddenly let off the throttle and also when the car is slowing down to a crawl and the auto trans shifts to 1st gear. As you know I rebuilt the diff many times, and even on some...

    Why does the Mk3 use Tripod inner Joint but Mk4 6 Ball Plunging

    As per my title. I noticed the mk3 uses a tripod inner, but the Mk4, IS300 and SC300 which are newer comes with a 6 ball plunging joint on the inner side. Is this actually an improvement ? I currently have a clunk and i strongly suspect its coming from the inner tripod, and as per recommendation...

    Like what Abe said, put back to old plugs and try. Also, stating the obvious, make sure the plug wire sequence are correct.

    Identifying the Supra Mk3 i own

    Its RHD ? Anyway, if its an 89, then it is a facelift, probably some one swapped the front nose to prefacelift, for whatever reason.

    Looking for rear suspension rubber insulator

    For added longevity I added a few layers of thin rubber sheet above the spring before it meets the rear upper mount. I added a few more layers on the drivers side to balance out the drivers weight which will caue the car to lean more on that side.

    Trying to find an old thread.

    The site went down somewhere in 2021 or 2022. Then it was back up by the efforts of Jeff Lange many months later. Not all of the posts were able to be restored. I know one of my threads was gone and I cant find them anymore.

    I bought the links with the part number you gave and I was able to find them locally. Of course they were listed for the toyota Wish in my country, which far outnumber the MA70 supra. They work great.

    MK3 carrier replacement

    I am not too sure what exaclty is the problem, but i recommend bolting the rear section after installing this bearing. With only the front end of DS slot the bearing in from behind the center mounting on the chassis, not from underneath. The carrier bearing is designed to be slotted from behind...

    Recently I have been having thud noises from my aftermarket arb links so looking to replace them. I stupidly threw away the oem ones. 1. Were the oem ones plastic for both front and rear? 2. What are the correct lengths for the front and rear? Is the rear shorter than front ? Rock auto is...

    Difficulty getting caster close L and R

    Indeed it did have grease but I suspect a lot of squeaking is because the grease on the bushing faces dried out . Spacing the faces will help prevent rubbing on subframe. Yes you are right . After the alignment something else came up. As i was driving home i heard a groan coming from the engine...
